I have some questions Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I read alot about FreeBSD and I've heard only great things about it. I know that Yahoo.com uses FreeBSD. I would like to use it for developing my web site but I have a great deal of questions because there are compatibility issues. Can it be installed on a Compaq PC that has 60 GB? Can I partition the hard disk to have two OS. Win 98 and Free BSD? Or FreeBSD and Red Hat Linux? If it's not compatible with Compaq, then can you recommend a PC that it's compatible with. My tech friend says that you can have FreeBSD on the servers and LInux Red Hat on the computer used to develop the site so that we can use all available free Linux software. What do you think? I want to be able to use Macromedia's Flash, Generator products etc. Can it be used with Free BSD? Is Free BSD ok with with Microsoft Explorer and Netscape browsers? Thank you and I appreciate any answers to any of my questions.
