I finally got bsd to load. I decided to buy the 4.0 power pack and install it on a box that has a Cyrix 133, 300mb of ram, Lynksys NIC, and Seagate 2 gig hard drive. I also installed X windows I wanted to see what it looked like in comparison to windows. Right now I only have the default X window up right now. I am going to dig into the ports and find something more suitable for my tastes. Anyways enough of the small talk lets get down to what I am writing for. I am looking for books or any other papers on unix commands and any other tips for free BSD. I am planning on get a new box and installing free bsd on it. Can I network my Windows machines through free BSD? One more question before I go is am I better of running X windows or just running from a shell or prompt (I am not sure of the terminology)? When I installed I used the auto configuration for the formatting of the hard drives. In which situations do I need to do this manually? Thank you for time and patience, Shane P.
