I am not entirely new... (but I could definitely use quite a bit of
further develop/.
(I am new to FreeBSD.) (experience w/ Linux & System V...) Still
relatively new with many aspects of administration....
Thorough C++ knowledge and (some experience w/ assembly, shell script
writing, Perl) And Computer Organization.. Have (built up & maintained)
my own Linux system for .. (+MUCH experience with PROBLEM-SOLVING, (BUG-FIXES) &....
(Love a good challenge and to design..)
(Working to begin writing/ my own OS)<-- (Once I complete
this, I will no longer be new...--> Current: at a level to begin))
Also: worked as Assistant System Administrator (short period of time),
very ?rudimentary? <--(relative statement) .....
I do like a good challenge... (especially something which has not been
completed yet...
---------------------------------------
SO I WAS WONDERING IF I COULD HAVE some MORE INFORMATION on HOW the
device drivers for (the PCMCIA card) and the (WAV/LAN card) were
written.
OPTIONS: Write driver onto another BSD disk(compile with the kernel,
and find a way (more study here) to make the driver boot with the rest
of the kernel.. (In the original installation boot (I need: study more
here (differences in kernel boots (design of &..))
-I Need to include configuration file in initial boot.
(Including AP assigned proxy-settings)
-(Write it into install program).
-and make an image of the kernel including the driver..
-(Then install over FTP.)
---------------------------------------
... I LIKE a CHALLENGE. (I somewhat chose this method for that
reason. I think/know I can do it.. (But I need more information).
--- Please SEND SOME INFO.
(I would like to see if I can do this/Learn more
as I do it...
(Do something which has not been done yet.)
--- Also, if I can please have a (couple) CD sent to :

Prefer reading Scientific Literature/articles (Technical), Can generally
understand them, eventually... (Understand quite a bit/most at this
point... (It IS true that I know quite a bit more Now than 2
years ago..) (Heuristic= stay focused, shoot for incredibly hing ande
evenutally you will reach it.)
LONG TERM goal (has been): Construct a theory of consciousness
(Prove ...
(Communicate a certain message and construct theories,

(Once upon a time was highly focused, brilliant and saw where many
different systems fit together on multi-levels.. Could solve problems
very effectively.. (PLAN to GET THERE AGAIN)
---------------
(Currently designing a neural network
(most likely feed-forward & feed-backward) of a particular specie of
bird... (Including (the effect of 'stochastic resonance' and noise
upon....
(Eventually (once I REFOCUS myself) I would like to design a
motherboard which evolves (using a DIFFERENT algorithm than ... (In 2
yrs or so) (Using (instrument below) as prototype.. (Will interact
with 'biofrequencies' to make art(visual) and music... -->(There will be
an algorithm for it to evolve.. (As well as possibly interact with
the person, in such a way that it 'mirrors' the person's energetic field
and "inspires the person to evolve..."
(There is much more to this and I have lots of work to do
furthering the design idea(s)..
(The above may actually be 2 projects.
(Motherboard, &"Mirror", (which gives the person puzzles..))
--(As well as "tactile feedback mechanism with music/ " (whil a person
is creating the music...
My BIG job is NOW to: Get organized, and remember all of the design
details, (work out and flesh out skeletal structure then make happen..) I
have had many specific ideas in the past as to how these projects might be
completed, (and I remember them..) So I must get organized and finish the
ideas, make them happen....
+VERY Important project: (MOST important) for my own benefit= Write a
book on my (theories of consciousness & get back to
philosophical world view and 'mission in Life')
As well as write narrative/art/fiction book
(Italo Calvino) is a favorite.
--(To get out of scatteredness (and temporary disorganization)
As well as create something wonderful... /Construct a
wonderful open (future of self= (Mystery and definition of
self, ..... (MUCH MORE HERE..) &more within this
'discovery/creation of ')...
- THANK you for hearing me ramble.. (I nd it now. (Incomplete
thought here..)
--My goal is to become revolutionary and
brilliant again in my ideas.. (Have new insights/ &eurekas again which
have

Anyway, (I know this has very little to do with the initial
question of installing FreeBSD using a WAV/LAN card, but
it was good for me to get this out anyway... Now to write
a book, and tackle all of these projects/problems...
Current project:
The design and implemen. of:
-A musical instrument which uses human electromagnetic frequencies
within the (nervous system &..) to create music. (will simulate/graph
the exact pattern/micro-rhythms in sound.. (As well as.. create some
sort of interface for the person to interact with, control the instrument
(through movement? (as a theremin? or...)
(outside of controlling the energetic frequencies (Yogi's are great at
this: hence, the mirror for an evolving energetic system within a person
(or teaching the person to eventually induce ecstatic experience and
visions, increased neuronal connections, etc -This is the eventual
message I want to portray with my invention (As well as theories,
books, visualArtwork(AlexGrey) & political messages.. (I WANT to be
heard/ and Reorganize, ground my work. A

---(Other details as part of this,..
--(Xtra project= musical modelling of biomolecules and DNA..)
As well as construct a Theory (of

unspecific.
