Since the introduction of pkgng, long compile times should no longer be a problem, even on slower computers. You can set up one machine as a build system, and install the packages on other computers. You can even try out the official package repositories. That said, building from source still has many advantages. I'm excited that you'll be introducing FreeBSD in the classroom! As always, if you have any questions, there are several mailing lists and channels on IRC (and don't forget the handbook!).

Curiously the students have a first bad reaction against FreeBSD mainly= caused by the spartan desktop of our computer lab (IceWM + rox) that have = the things in other structure ;-). However, after few days they prefer to f= inish the practical works in these old but stable "such as rocks" machines = ;-). We have a practice class using image analysis of aerial photographs. T= he practice consist in determining fractals on each image and relate differ= ent mathematical parameters with landscape measures. The software can be in= stalled in Windows but many students have problems in their computers and p= refer to use the old machines (celeron with 500 MB RAM) of computer lab ;-)= Half of student are migrating to PC-BSD ;-)=20 > Good luck, > Kevin Zheng Thanks --=20 ******************************************************** Daniel Pat=F3n Dom=EDnguez Numerical Ecology.
