It is now almost midnight here in New York, and after many, many hours I have finally got the system working (but not configured.) I rebuilt my kernel with the necessary modifications for my system, and now it boots in normal, mulit-user mode. Now, I need to configure it. When I installed BSD in the first place, I was given a configuration option in the menuing system. I would like to go back and use it to configure X, add users, etc. However, I don't seem to be able to do so. (1) If I boot off a floppy (the boot-install floppy), I can access the CD ROM Install program with all of the configuration options -- but when I click on any of them, nothing happens -- it just puts me right back in the same menu. (Apparently it does not find the FreeBSD system it is supposed to manipulate.) (2) When I boot off my system (hard drive), I cannot find the install/configure utility, and therefore cannot run it... Do you know the filename of the configuration/install utility? Or how I can run it off a system already running Free BSD. Thanks a million for all your help. -- Joseph
