Arrghhhh ! It seems that I'll have to get used to reply to all, though I think that this double-posting (you're gonna receive my emai twice !) in unecessary and could be avoyded by a simple change in the rules of a list which is newborn. (I have to confess that I still use Eudora and Windows, but I have no choice). But this is not the subject. Let's go then.

I guess the point here is newbies writting their experiences and THEN having an advanced user to check it out. w/o that we won't have something of quality. FreeBSD today is quality, and I surely would like to see our work at one of the distribution CDs, or maybe (reminds me of a song: "Dreamer/Nothing but a dreamer...") sort of an on line installation help for non tech ppl, or at least, for non-Unix ppl.
