I am running 2.2.2 Release and I have 2 questions. First one, I have a compaq computer I am running this on. It has 40mb memory, 540 HD, and a network card (10/100) to the internet. My problem is when it boots up it only shows 16mb of memory not the 40mb that's installed. Can you tell me how to solve this problem. I am not the best at Unix, I am teaching myself how to use it. Oh btw, the unit is running DNS, Apache web server, and a couple of cgi and pl programs. Second question, can I upgrade to the latest version of FreeBSD without losing any of my current data and settings. If I can then how do I do that. Thanks for your time and understanding in this matter.
