It is highly recommended that all new installations use FreeBSD 4.0 as it has more features and will be supported by the project further into the future. 4.0 has been battle tested by the folks at Yahoo! and is ready for mission critical deployments. You'll be much happier in the long run if you install 4.0. Brandon D.
