> You've got a couple of weird things and errors on your page: > - You say OpenBSD doesn't support multiple consoles: ctrl+alt+f2
Yup! Thanks. Linux uses ALT-Fkey which I tried. Didn't try adding CTRL. :-/ Assumed it didn't have it, and too busy getting everything else working to go look for it. I've now documented it. > - Using the 3.7 ports tree on 3.6 is not recommended. The only install disk I have is 3.6. I assume that by doing an install over the net, I get the 3.7 system - but some trace of 3.6 seems to have remained because some funny things happened later... > - tarring and untarring fake-i386 to install a port is just weird. > make install should already do that It didn't, it gave an error and did a fake install. It appears to be related to the 3.6/2.7 problem. Other packages installed cleanly. > - Why not install screen from a package like jove? I'd rather forget about packages and use ports for everything, but I thought it was worth mentioning for newbies like myself who spent hours looking for apt-get and yum and emerge etc etc - i.e coming from a linux environment... > - sh /etc/netstart bridge0 will fire up your new bridge without rebooting. Thanks, didn't know that. Actually I just found out that "ifconfig bridge0 create" was the crucial missing step I didn't know. > That's all I can think of at the moment. Apreciate it, thanks. G PS I'm marking all these comments up in he wiki as I reply. Two more emails pending from folks who sent similar corrections...
