I realize this email is _really_ old, but did anyone ever get jumpstarts running from FreeBSD? I'm looking at setting up a jumpstart server here, and have a number of FreeBSD boxes laying around that would be easier to use than my Solaris sytems. -Brian > > --Apple-Mail-1--227213988 > Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit > Content-Type: text/plain; > charset=US-ASCII; > format=flowed > > Am 16.01.2004 um 08:20 schrieb Crist J.
