I'm a newbie who is trying to install FreeBSD, but it keeps crashing at =
the XFree86 Setup part. I'm confused as to where to ask my question =
since I read that :

Support questions should be sent to freebsd-questions@freebsd.org.

But when I sign up for that mailing list it says:

"You should not send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless =
you consider the question to be pretty technical."

So, where do I ask a "how to" about XFree86 Setup?

Just wondering...
