--- Comment #3 from Blake McBride <[email protected]> ---
Let me put this another way.  I have 30+ years experience with Unix and
software development.  One of the things I learned is "have you tried it once"?
 I assure you that your GUI installer will not install a fresh MBR system on a
32 bit machine.  Most who have tried, you have lost to Linux.  The others
figured out, as I did, how to do it manually with gpart.

The biggest problem you have with FreeBSD is the huge amount of bad or
out-of-date documentation, and the fact that really basic stuff doesn't work. 
All you need is a tester worth his salt and someone who will listen to him.

FreeBSD could be a really great system, as those who suffered through the
learning curve can attest.  The distance between where you are now, and making
a system that doesn't turn off all but the most committed isn't far.
