page http://www.freebsd.org/projects/newbies.html says If you haven't installed yet, look for the latest mainstream release. and 'latest mainstream release' links to http://www.freebsd.org/releases/3.4R/announce.html so it looks like 3.4 is the 'latest mainstream release'. most of the rest of the doc i've read is consistent with 3.4 being the release that a newbie should install, but there have been some minor potential inconsistencies (hence this post). for example, one page (http://www.freebsd.org/where.html) linked to 3.3 stuff. (i found this page via the search engine, so maybe it's not linked in anymore by current doc and should be ignored?). furthermore, comments on the current-stable handbook page, plus a reasonable plain english interpretation 'latest mainstream release', make me wonder if 4.0 might qualify. so, is 3.4 the 'latest mainstream release'? -- Ralph Mellor: http://www.dimp.com/ralphmellor.html 615.292.2917 x2 If I had my life over, I'd believe in reincarnation. icq# 71194896 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Digital Impact: http://www.dimp.com/ 615.292.2917 or 877.DIMP.COM 2510 Essex Place, Nashville TN 37212 Fax: 615.269.9520 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
