Hi all, Could someone answer those questions? THanks a lot! I just purchased a book (with a CD disk): 4.4BSD-Lite, CD-ROM Companion It contains the cource cide and documentation for 4.4BSD-Lite Release. Does it contain ALL the source code for 4.4BSD-Lite? I thought it does. But I am confused after I read the introduction. It says that it does not contain all the source code for 4.4BSD -- some of kernel files were removed. I understand that FreeBSD 2.0 is based on 4.4BSD-Lite. My understanding is that all the source code of 4.4BSD-Lite can be freely distributed. Am I wrong? The source code for FreeBSD 2.0 contains ALL the code. Am I wrong? I hope the CD-disk I bought contains all the code for 4.4BSD-Lite. I hope the FreeBSD 2.0 source code contain all the code. Just for the purpose of study. Very appreciated if anyone can advise me on this! Ching
