It's difficult to know what to do here. Seeing as you have got a 3.0 CD set as well, I'd just ignore the problem. > 2. the version 3.0 from mall is working well but I dont have the > handbook how to do the ftp of this hand book and down load from the web. > Let me have the IP adss of the server which is having this. The Handbook is available on http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/ but (a slightly older version) is probably installed on your machine. Check /usr/share/doc/handbook/ and also /usr/share/doc/FAQ/ > 3. How to activate the soundcard? > 4. How to install the CD rom drive(rewritable).? Your remaining to questions are really too vague to answer, it would take a long time to describe the whole process of adding new devices to the system. My advice would be to read the handbook, and come back to the list with any spacific problems that you're having. --- Andrew Boothman FreeBSD UK User Group http://ukug.uk.FreeBSD.org/~andrew/ http://ukug.uk.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
