I don't have the Handbook to check and I'm offline at the present time but I'm suprised. I thought that "userland" meaned "everything which is not the kernel", including the base system.
What you call "userland", "everything but the base system", seems to be what the Handbook calls the ports. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
