If you can, do it and repeat the installation. The second computer surely will work. b) with the first computer download the 4.8-RELEASE ISO image, burn it in a CD and use it to install FreeBSD in the second one. c) buy the distribution CDs from FreeBSD Mall. They are not expensive. If you subscribe [to get them each time they are released], they are even cheaper. > >----------------------------------------------- > Yahoo!
