From: "PANAGIOTOPOULOS GEOR" <gpanag@tee.gr> Subject: FreeBSD 3.0 Date: Sun, 28 Mar 1999 09:13:24 +0300 > > Deep DISSAPOINTMENT regarding the FreeBSD 3.0 Release from Walnut Creek: If you've actually got 3.0-RELEASE on CD then I encourage you to read the RELEASE.TXT file which is very explicit about the target audience that version was intended for. It is obsolete now. You probably really want 3.1-RELEASE or later. Even so, 3.0-RELEASE was quite serviceable for its intended uses. > > 1) No possibility to use a browser to get an overview on what "tarballs" > are in the ports collection in each CD (if you need something, you must go > through "find ..." to see if it is there). > There is actually no ports collection, but only a massive amount of > collected tarballs thrown together, [other erroneous conclusions snipped...] You are mistaken. Please try covering the material in the handbook at http://www.freebsd.org again. If you continue to have problems then feel free to email me directly.
