I am very familiar with the kernel build process in linux, but FreeBSD appears to be a very different animal in that respect. So, what I am asking, is there any advice that you would care to impart to this FreeBSD newbie (aside from RTFM, which I have done... FreeBSD's docs kick butt)? I appreciate it, Derek To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
