Finally, after 6 months I have got my home built Alpha AXPpci to boot
install FreeBSD and not get machine errors.

So for fair warning this being my first Alpha ever, I my ask stupid
questions so please bear with me. My first question is, where is the
Linux_base package for Alpha. I have search ftp.freebsd.org and
ftp2.freebsd.org and no luck, I went to the web site found the link and it
say the package does not exist. I know some packages are arch independent,
but I would not assume that Linux_base would be one. That is a correct
assumption, is it not? Well any help would be appreciated.

TIA
