Posting to a mailing list is *always* a last resort; and yet I had to because I could find nothing even remotely up to date on the subject. I've continued to use FreeBSD for the past five years because of the documentation. Why isn't the netboot installation method detailed definitively somewhere? Is it simply because no one has updated the previous one, or is there another reason? If it were supported, shouldn't it be listed in the installation notes? aaron.glenn
