Can i assume it has been through at least cursory testing and will do the basic functions an average user might need without panicing often? Is it possible to dual-boot 2 versions of FreeBSD? Like -stable and -current ? I recently discovered Linux only allows this if you use 2 separate hard drives. -=> jm <=- ------------------------------------------------------- The opinions expressed in this message are the opinions of the mail program only, and not of the writer, his employer, or freebsd-uk.eu.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
