I have lurked in this list. I have asked *one* question. Never got and answer. No Problem, finally discovered a partial answer in the archives. Still waiting on the software author for some help. I have saved tons of messages that *will* pertain to my needs in the near future. These messages were very informative and most included the reprimand of looking in the archives and FAQ and Manual. I have searched and read, currently in 3 store bought books at this time trying to scratch every bit of info and help I can. I was wondering why I never see any books on FreeBSD on the store shelves but the same shelves 2 or more have books on Linux and one on ATT and Solaris. Nothing on BSD. I think I know now. The above statement. I have now installed 2.2.7 37 times, yes, *thirty seven* times since Saturday on this laptop and I still have to come to microsuk$ to write this message. Why? Because of this kind of Crap. I have come to the conclusion that FreeBSD is the best OS out there, cause even when it will not install completely, I can still access it and do simple stuff in it. Amazing!!! You can't do that in Linux or Windoze or DOS or OS/2 or probably just about anything else. But! Your Manual is poor, your FAQ lite weight, and the support on here terrible. It took me to go through the other OS's to appreciate the power and capabilities of UNIX only to find snobs that are far worse than those in Fidonet and Windoze. Gee! Imagine That! I know I am probably not winning over any support for this, thats fine, I can always go to a platform that is better supported by its users, OS/2 or Linux. I stood FreeBSD because my friend convinced me to choose this platform as the best even though I have more friends on Linux. Something to remember, those of us that do not bleed unix when we are cut, may not always know what to ask for when we search. If this forum is for those who *ONLY* bleed unix, then I think this forum should be renamed FreeBSD-Bleeding_Unix-Forum.
