ok - I managed to get the minimal binaries up by ftp'ing to a win95 machine and carrying floppies to the machine on the kitchen table. Now I have the manpages.* files and want to install from floppy so I can proceed from there. How? An alternative is to use my dos/win95 machine to read docs for now. What is the best doc package for that purpose? I do have browsers,converters,etc. I hope I can help to promote your project. I have 2 domains registered and I AM ANXIOUS to get back to using a real os. I tried a lot of server/perl/html editors on windows and 95. I decided that it would be best to set up a unix platform to test on and ftp from there. The stuff I tried was unstable. I used to write device drivers for unix but my memory is tired. I have had my fingers blown off by microsoft products too many times and I am only planning to keep windows around to check my pages with popular browsers. I would be glad to devote some space at topoftheworld.com to freebsd promotion. I just moved to tiac.net because they allow scripting. I expect that most nameservers will see the change by tonight. again, if you can point me in the right direction, I am a good reader. I never took any courses but am an accomplished c and assembler programmer. Also a hardware designer. If I can help with packaging docs in the future, I will. Paul Wade
