Hi, First my question: I would like to install FreeBSD 2.2.1 using the ftp installation option. But when I tell it to start it never connects to the modem. I get sent to ppp, I go into term and the modem never responds to the AT commands, I have ppp setup and usually it connects fine. Second, a book recommendation: Sorry this is really the wrong mailing list for this, but I think it would be most useful to the people on this list. I recently purchased the book "Unix Internals - A Practical Approach" by Steve D. Pate, and I would highly recommend it to anybody else who would like to know about the inner workings of Unix, the book is about SCO Unix, but most thing should be the same for FreeBSD. The only differences I have noticed are the name of some devices are different. Info about the book: Title: Unix Internals - A Practical Approach Author: Steve D. Pate ISBN: 0-201-87721-X Publisher: Addison-Wesley Prices: $40-$60? I would like to hear some more advanced Unix users opinions on this book. Thanks, Daniel Keller
