If you're interested in real graphics and graphical user interface, check out http://www.xfree86.org and see if your video card is supported by the latest XFree86 (that's what FreeBSD uses). > 2) PCMCIA - please don't laugh - I have an old Zeos meridian and an > adaptec card for it to an external SCSI drive can I install FreeBSD?
