A very very simple answer for you: Send your question to freebsd-questions@freebsd.org and be sure to tell them which version of FreeBSD you are installing. Besides the fact that we don't normally deal with how-to/support questions here, we have been specifically asked to ensure that ********* all installation-related problems ******** no matter how simple, are only dealt with on freebsd-questions list. If anyone else asks, it'd be appreciated if list members would very gently point them over to freebsd-questions. Daniel, feel free to post to -newbies any general chat that wouldn't be right on the more technical lists, or ask here for advice about using the mailing lists if you ever need it. I hope we'll see you again when you have this sorted out. -- Regards, -*Sue*- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
