Do I have to mount it? How? "mount /cdrom". The definitions are in /etc/fstab, but you don't need to fizzle with them unless you have to change something. > Do I have to compile the sound support into the kernel? Help will be > appreciated. Yes. If you are adventurous, go to /sys/i386/conf, copy GENERIC to YOURNAME, check through LINT for "pcm" and add that to YOURNAME. Run "config YOURNAME", "cd ../../compile/YOURNAME", "make depend", "make", "make install" and "reboot now" If this goes a little too fast, start reading at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html, it tells you all about the mysteries regarding kernels and how to create one. > Also, I tried to setup apache, but it wouldn't start saying that it couldn't > recognise the local machine's hostname.
