I am still fairly new to FreeBSD (I suppose I could be considered a "newbie") but I have some basic programming and scripting background from Windows and web page projects, kernel stuff is way beyond me right now. I am willing to try anything I need to as this system is just being used for experimentation. I have attached a boot -v and name -a a from 5.2.1 release and would post a boot -v from current but I don't know how. My motherboard is an Asus A7N8X Deluxe 2.0 with 1GB of RAM. I am still dual booting with Windows :( and have a shared partition (FAT32) I can dump data onto. (I don't have email setup on Free BSD yet although if that would help at some point I'll figure it out) Thanks for anything, Jonathan PS. I tried to send this from my main email account (I am subscribed with it) but it failed with this message "freebsd-current@freebsd.org: smtp;450 Client host rejected: cannot find your hostname, [143.69.242.38]" if anyone knows an easy fix I would appreciate it. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
