Hello!

I purchased FreeBSD because my ISP runs it on my dedicated servers. So i
thought why not use it at home on my LAN for testing and stuff.
I invested the 40 bucks and ordered FreeBSD 3.0. But now after 8 hours
of work and installation I'm kinda fed up with it. Nothing works. Apache
doesn't work, Xwindows doesn't work (although I updated it to support
all my hardware) and the whole directories and everything look different
from my webserver. And I also want to complain about all the hardware
and installation routines. They suck. I guess you have to be an expert
already only to get FreeBSD installed and working.
I recommend you take a look at Turbolinux. They know how to make the
installation easy and understandable for non linux/unix experts.
So I will delete FreeBSD and install Turbolinux again if I can't find
help with these problems anywhere. I should have given the 40 bucks to a
bum this would have been a better investment.
Best regards
Alex
