I am game to start a group too. There's was someone in staten is. who was
posting in the newbie list seemed to know alot and appeared to be willing to
teach, if we had a meeting I would want the theme FreeBSD installation. I've
read tons of stuff on the web. It's still not making sense to me what is
going on w/the:
partioning,
disk labeling - say what? (no one''s explaining what this is ),
slices, (vs partitions, waht's the difference - i'd really like to know_
mounting points - what's this?
how files (eg. \ ) are mounted to the partitions ( or is it slices ), why?,
how, when
ect.......

All the tutorials assume unix sysadmin knowledge - that's a stone cold fact.
Now, the speaker and menber at a linux meeting i went to, knows alot about
freebsd, so i'm gonna try emailing him as well  posting to the questions
group again - it's still not clear to me what is going on w/the
partitioning.
