Well, an obvious solution might be to install FreeBSD, which is what
this mailing list is all about.  BSD/OS is a different operating
system.  Some people here, including myself, use BSD/OS as well, but I
haven't seen this problem.  Since you paid money for this system, you
should be able to get support from bsdi.com.
