Of course you can. It's x86-compatible, isn't is? If you have a connection faster than 56K, don't use the Power Pack, otherwise do. The GUI is in XFree86 and comes with Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, etc. But most techies prefer CLI (command-line interface). I hate Novell Netware from my experiences with it. Be sure you have backups if you're a newbie >From: "Shane Hagan" <shane_64@hotmail.com> >To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG >Subject: AMD processor's? >Date: Sun, 23 Jul 2000 01:19:10 GMT > >Can I run free BSD on an AMD k-7 processor?
