I neither find F.BSD nor BSDI guidance on how to format a new (after install) disk for BSD, nor how to label or low-level for adding to an existing BSD e.g._2.0.5 Welcome some tips .. ideas .. search urls ... Been given impression that most 80X86 Unixes are in a similar boat .. WHAT is the evolution plan for using other x86 code on FBSD .. really dont want to switch ..but sadly I am not the programmer that a lot of you must be .. Binaries .. pre-tuned sources are easy for other x86 than FreeBSD to find .. how does the rest of the F.BSD gang get here. Really like what I can do on the product otherwise .. thnx /Ev/ -- | http://www.oxnardsd.org http://www.vcnet.com/efb http://www.gitt.gov http://www.nswses.navy.mil | | Sun+BSD Unix - CISCO - DNS - TIS FireWalls - Security - inn-news - WWW-Webmaster - Samba - Internet |
