Yea. It should be relative easy to install (no NetBSD or tape or whatever kludges, the best would be a floppy like on i386). > It might be called a beta release, or perhaps a snapshot. Snapshot is fine. How far is the port? (I used to follow the cvs-sys mails once a week, but the archiver on ftp.freebsd.org isn't working anymore). Are there any pitfalls on FreeBSD/Alpha or what does not work / or is completely different than on i386?
