[-- Attachment #1 --] Dear FreeBSD and Users, I am new to the Unix world and am learning my way around quite quickly I think. I have learned how to move around and get into the default x-windows system, but I seek to install and set up the KDE enviroment for x-windows. I have been having some trouble setting up my tcp connection so that I may download the KDE and Netscape packages. I do have a win95 Os running on another partition, and could easily download the distrubutions from the tcp/ip connection I have set up in Win 95...but...I have no clue about how to access the other partition while running the FreeBSD Os. This is of course where the downloaded files would be and I would need to move them from partition 1(Win95) to partion 2(FreeBSD). Is this possible? I have no clue...but it would be nice. If I could set up my internet connection under FreeBSD...I have a good idea of how to setup these distributions via ftp. I have sought many user guides and manuals but only end up even more confused. If there is a Guru lerking out there and you wanna pass on some of that knowledge to a newbie, I would be much appreciative. Thank you, P. M.
