-----Original Message----- From: Mitch Graves [mailto:mitch_graves@comcast.net] Sent: Friday, August 05, 2005 6:48 AM To: freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.org Subject: Looking to get involved. I am a newbie to freeBSD. In my job I work with Solaris and RedHat Linux. Occasionally I work on AIX and HP-UX servers as well. I have been fascinated with Linux and would like to have a deeper knowledge of the OS. I currently am focusing on the boot process. Using DOS and Windows I can recover from un unbootable hard drive. RedHat has some utilities as well. I would like to know step-by-step ( from creating the MBR to login) all that is involved in the boot process. I am familiar with inittab, rc scripts, gcc compiler, etc. One day I would even like to tackle writing a device driver. With all of that said, is there a place I can help and learn at the same time? By the way, I live in Longmont and Work in Louisville.
