Martin, I'm somewhat confused about the FreeBSD environment.
The first issue is that FreeBSD outputs a 30 second LOUD beep before it boots which I have not found a way to turn off. Does this happen to you? How can I turn it off? The second issue is that despite the fact that I asked for emacs to be installed (I installed several times) I cannot find it anywhere. How can I install emacs after the fact? Third, where can I find GNU make? Originally I had written the Makefiles so they did not care which make was used but changes have been made which require gnu make. I thought I asked for it to be installed but can't find it. I also asked for the Linux-compat environment to be installed but that seems lost also. My only guess is that there is a disk volume somewhere that contains all these packages but isn't getting mounted. All of my pure unix experience predates any package-handling mechanisms. Where is a good FAQ location so I can get educated? I picked up a FreeBSD book but it isn't really a user's guide. In theory, given the work you've already done I should just have to compile Axiom, make a few final tweaks to the Makefile, test the lot and we're good to go. Unfortunately I'm still struggling with the mundane. There is no such thing as a simple job.
