Some people are telling me that I've got a pre-release of 4.7 whilst others are telling me I have the official release now being downloaded of the FreeBSD mirror. Given that I have 4 CD's I don't want to download them all again if I can avoid it. > everyone. Have you ever installed FreeBSD again or is this your first > attempt of an installation? I've installed 4.3, 4.4 and 4.6. I'm more of a Linux (and RedHat Linux at that) person so FreeBSD feels very familiar but also very foreign. Especially it's default shell for users, I always end up tabbing four times before I realise autocompletion isn't on :-( DSL -- Somewhere where I hope to find someone Still I find myself near you If I hear the words I'll go.
