Hi there,

I am new to this mailing list and to freeBSD - which I am hoping will 
replace slackware Linux currently running our server.

Having installed 2.1.5 (Ausgust 1996) off the CDROM, I am wondering if 
someone can share their experience on this matter. The FTP sites have 
2.1.6 - is that better (in terms of bug fixes etc.) ?

The FreeBSD-stable directory on these sites does'nt appear to have a full 
release under it, which is confusing.

The hardware I am using is : Tyan 1563D (one 686/133 CPU), 2940UW, 
Quantum 4.3 disk etc.

Any hints will be greatly appreciated.
