It looks like you were new to a Unix type OS. When I first installed the BSD OS, I did some booboo's at first I thought it was installed also got the same error as you. but best suggestion to give anyone read the installation doc's, faq's or buy "The Complete FreeBSD by Greg Lehey" never try something without checking how it operates. Before making this leap, also what you can is take a intoduction course to Unix or attend a Unix User Group meeting in your area. I learned how UNIX operate, though a friend of mine. he gave me a shell account or access to his UNIX server, there I learn how it operate and configured using editors like joe, jove and vi to how is the various files works .profile .mail etc.. etc.. Good luck, and I hope hop on the bike and try again :) -- Richard Broza | aka: WhiteWolf - ServOp / IRCop wwolf@rogers.wave.ca | SorceryNet IRC - kechara.sorcery.net #9000 Powered by Pepsi / FreeBSD 2.2.6 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
