Hi everyone. Since DOS - fdisk just toasted my Linux - partition I've 
decided to give FreeBSD a try again. I had to abandon 2.1.5 in favor 
of Linux because it (FBSD) failed to compile an all-important application
(diffpack, http://www.oslo.sintef.no/diffpack/). It failed because
a spesific file, ' generic.h' was missing. I'd expect it to be available in
2.2.x, but so far I haven't found it. Could someone please enlighten me
on this ? Thanks in advance.
