I would like to know if there is a way I could find out about all the commands available to me, I have looked in the manual but it seems to go a bit in depth at this stage. I would like to find out about the basic UNIX commands and how to use them for my needs. One inparticular problem I have is mounting my DOS partitions and reading from them in FreeBSD, I have a program I'd like to transfer onto my FreeBSD partition from my DOS partition. I'd be greatful for any information you could send me. Many thanks Richard (jules.winnfield@cableinet.co.uk)
