The basic documentation on how to install and configure the system can be found in The FreeBSD Handbook and the FAQ available from the main web site of the project. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/faq/ Also PC-BSD is worth checking out. If you come from a "Windows" background and have experiences with Ubuntu Linux, this should look and feel familiar. http://www.pcbsd.org/ But as a developer, you should not have _any_ problems getting started with a pure FreeBSD installation that will then fit your requirements (e. g. a development environment workstation, a test server, or a mixed form of both). > Am using Windows OS in my personal system.How can i install FreeBSD in > my local system and do a try before configuring in main server directly... You can use the typical means of virtualization that are possible inside a "Windows" installation. Emulate "a full PC" and install the system to it. For easily trying out a configured system I recommend having a look at VirtualBSD. http://www.virtualbsd.info/ It can easily be used without installation in a VirtualBox environment which should even be possible in "Windows". -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
