Hi, Here's the situation:
I have a copy of FreeBSD 3.2 on a 4 CD set from Walnut Creek and a 4.2
CD from a friend. The 4.2 CD is not working, and locks up in the middle of
an install. I went back to 3.2 and it works great. I want to upgrade, but
I don't know how to get the modem to work. I have a choice of COM5 and my
modem is on COM2. No matter where I put it it is ALWAYS on COM2.
Next, if I can figure out how to tell BSD 3.2 to find my US Robotics 56k
modem. Then I need to know what tools ar availible to upgrade to 4.3 maybe
even an unstable version if I am feeling ballsy.
If ANYONE can answer my two questons, I would happily send some Witchblade
comics and/or Mountain Dew.
I am at wits end, if someone could recommend an IRC server and channel for
help with FreeBSD, I would appriciate that as well.
Best regards,
Patrick AKA MistrP on IRC
