FreeBSD wouldn't recognise my CD-ROM and refused to Install it from a DOS partition using /stand/sysinstall it was just by accident that I found full installation istructions in the RELNOTES file...... After tweaking X a bit I finally got it running and I was presented with 4 Windows, XClock 2 Xterms and one called Login which funnily enough doesn't let you log in...... What exactly do I need to do now, I don't know how to run appz from X-Windows, do I need a Window Manager or somethin' ?? What do the Xterm and Login windows do aapart from give errors like can't fin ls (when I try to use the ls or lf command) Any Help People ??
