I recently installed Mandrake on my laptop which is my everyday workstation. I have an older box (p166) that I would like to use as a test Unix based server, but it is very low on resources, such as hard disk space and memory (40MB, 2GB). I am getting somewhat familiar working at the terminal on my linux machine, and would like to know if BSD will install on such hardware and how I go about installing it using minimal resources. Also, how do I become a member of this mailing list? Tks, - Steve Bertrand To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
