Well, basicly, most people I know don't like the graphical installations like Red Hat and Mandrake. When I worked with Mandrake some time ago I never chosed the graphical installation either ... And as far as I know, FreeBSD isn't aiming as much to user friendly-enviroments as Mandrake is. FreeBSD is an operating system you need to take your time for, and you need to read the proper documentation. FreeBSD is user friendly enough when you know how it works (take the ports-tree for example), but it requires that the user is willing to invest time in the Operating System. Cheers, Jorn.
