Hi,

I am a long-time GNU/Linux user and I have just started with FreesSBIE to learn FreeBSD.  I really enjoy FreeSBIE, but I will need some pointers from time to time and I hope that it is ok to ask this list members for it.

Today, I have to really basic ones:

1) why is my /etc/fstab empty?  Is there another file somewhere which would contain the same info?

2) why does one mount, for example, a CD by doing "mount_cd9660 /dev/cd1 /mnt/cdrom1" instead of the more simple "mount
/dev/cd1 /mnt/cdrom1" does /dev/cd1 not already give the OS the info that its a cd9660 CD which is being mounted?

Also - more generally, is there some book/article/website which a proficient GNU/Linux user who wants to explore FreeBSD should read?

Many thanks in advance and kind regards,

KS
