Hehe, actually, you ARE on the road to becoming an expert. Remember, we humans learn best through failure! As for RH and the ease of installation, I've used FreeBSD and various Linux distributions and they're all pretty much the same. I've actually had more difficulty with the Linux stuff than the BSD personally, but then again I got used to BSD first. Hang in there.... You'll get it right, then you can help out the next person with troubles! Have fun!?! To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
