[I did notice the smiley]
Let's put it this way:
I've printed the file: 22 pages......
And only after 3/4 of it, the real general stuff starts.
I assume most people will give up long before that.
So they never get to the part that they REALLY REALLY should read.
At least I did on the first time, until Ruslan pointed me at it.
So what about those that are new to FBSD??? I'm running it since 1.1 and
still manage to get into trouble. (Still got the CD :-) )
