The problems I had were i) I was not being structured in my approach to installing FreeBSD and packages, and ii) I ran out of disk space despite having 300Mb of space in /usr. I had tried to install some other packages because I had not properly read the handbook. So I am going back to basics. I have been spoiled by ms-win and all its "wizards" ... I despise them because they take responsibility away from users. It was not until I started trying to come to terms with FreeBSD that I realised how much they had compromised my independence! It's fun trying to learn how to install and control FreeBSD. Stuart. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
