>Description:
even as root, I cannot get the acd0c to be recognized even though it installs from cdrom fine. I receive one consistent error message during install involving aoutlib 3.3.1 error-1 see debug.

I'll admit I'm a newbie, but I have used nearly every major OS and program language. I am VERY interested in BSD over Linux because of it's heritage. I purchased the boxed set at $70 and would like to get my money's worth.

I certainly appreciate any help I can get. I'll answer questions as best I can, including consumer experiences. I would really like to see BSD become more prevalent as I think the Wendoze OS's are fairly hoaky.

The best that I can tell you now is that unless I can get some support, I can't recommend FreeBSD, but I would sure like to.
