Date: Thu, 24 Jul 1997 12:56:24 PDT From: "Marty Leisner" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Where do we send comments/corrections for the freebsd/handbook (I didn't see it clearly in both documents). I also didn't see anything which explains how much space to use when I partitioned my disk (I just installed a seagate 6.4 gig ide disk, so I gave freebsd a bit over a gig and said "install all". I really find the "install" selection would be very helpful if some type of space guidelines was given (unless I missed it). Maybe the handbook? In installing, it says samba is used for connecting NETBUI clients -- this is wrong, samba is used for Netbios over TCP/IP, NETBEUI (spelling?) is a seperate protocol freebsd doesn't support. Also, the handbook/FAq didn't talk about booting from CD-rom (very useful). marty leisner@sdsp.mc.xerox.com Don't confuse education with schooling. Milton Friedman to Yogi Berra
