The install disks for FreeBSD, if you got them early have some serious problems. First I downloaded the ISO (since the walnut creek CDs hadn't arrived yet) and couldn't even use it, it bombed several places on the install.. Then the walnut creek CDs came and I had the very same problem. If you booted from the CD, it was a FreeBSD 3.2 kernel for some reason in addition to most of the distributions and packages failing to install. There is mention of some problems and a possible fix in the Errata for the 3.4 release (just a new boot image) but I have a feeling most pre-packaged CDs are going to have the same problems I have had -- I tried the fix with my CD and still had the package and distro errors though. Here another question for you.. Is anyone using 4.0 on any production machines? Would anyone know of a place where I can look over what's new/added/removed in 4.0?
