Duke,

O'Reilly & Associates, Inc. Books.  FreeBSD is free but I have
happily spent a lot on their published volumes. They are readable
and understandable. Start with "Learning the Unix Operating System",
if you are as rank a newbie as you say and I was. (I now have a small
lan with a gateway to the net at home - running FreeBSD, of course:-))

The FreeBSD book and CD are _excellent_ investments. When my primary
IDE drive 'sploded. I broke down and bought an Adaptec SCSI controller
and an older (6X) Teac CDROM. The machine will Boot from the CD and
you can do a clean install - with no sweat. (Read the docs on line
and with the CD - REALLY READ THEM.)

With all that and this list to help - they really do (Thanks, Y'all),
your adventure will begin.

Have Fun! John
