Well maybe worse, that the deal with AT&T for the BSD franchise has fallen apart... Okay, so I have a FreeBSD 10.1 CD-ROM, believed to be a true copy and authentic copy. And I loaded it on a computer. I did this entirely offline. I also supplied passwords. Then I went online to get packages. Nothing unusual happened UNTIL the machine seized and when I rebooted I discovered it would hang and reboot. A loop. I had done nothing to cause this. I had not opened an X session nor done anything other than load packages such as maxima, cproto. Nothing involved in the area of security. I had thought this was pretty much impossible... Remember, this machine was brand new, I'd loaded FBSD-10.1 on it no more than an hour prior and had not messed with any of the internals.
