Hi:
I have two questions before I plunge in and make my first FreeBSD install.=
=20
Normally I keep a back up copy of all my data in a ReiserFS formated partio=
n=20
on my hard drive. When I do a Linux Distribution install I will reformat th=
e=20
non back up partions and then restore my data by copying from the backup=20
partion. Will I be able to do this with my FreeBSD install? Will FreeBSD be=
=20
able to mount and read write data from this Linux Reiserfs formated partion?
My second question is hardware related. Is the Logitech 4000 Pro USB Web=20
camera supported in FreeBSD? Thanks very much for your help.
=2D --=20
Ralph
