Dear FreeBSD,
    Thanks for all your help, especially Jaime, for helping me boot into =
FreeBSD.  It finally worked.  I relized I was booting into the wrong =
drive.
    The real reason I'm writing is because I'm trying to install the K =
Desktop Environment (KDE).  When ever I try the "make install" command, =
each ftp server replies: "Host name lookup failure."  I'm confused.  =
Please give me all the help you can.  Please also explain exactly what a =
"host" is.  I could use the help.
