I purchased the CD Box set (10 CDs) from BSDi and have been trying to install for 2 weeks now, with no success (See previous posting: "Kernel/Config Install problems DFE-530TX+, fd0, config> di fe0, and more"). I spoke with a friend (AIX and Sol SysAdmin) about my project and he suggested I drop FreeBSD and go with RedHat Linux. He said more companies migrating over to the RedHat Linux than any other OS and that RedHat Linux is close in understanding to AIX. I am new to BSD and have no Unix background. I have invested time and money in trying to get the BSD OS configured properly, but I am wondering if invested unwisely. Keith __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
