Another thing he could do is get a recent -SNAP from releng22.freebsd.org and install with that, if the support has made it in. (There's also -current there I think, that would work too.) Of course, I was assuming one would install over the internet...hrmph. BUT with one of these floppies I'd expect you could install from the 2.2.5 CD as well, so maybe it's not such a bad idea after all. >I've really got to thank Nate and the Nomads (sounds like a >bad rock-group from the 60's) for notebook suppor. Good >work guys! Nate plays a mean "Hotel California".... :-) Good luck and godspeed, Brian
