i am not versed on the mechanics of freebsd; in fact, i barely
understand the mechanics of the suse linux 6.4 package that i sm
currently using.  i became aware of the bsd package after seeing one for
sale (freebsd 'powerpak') in a computer. i read on the box that bsd will
run linux app's, so i decided to download bsd and try it on my system. 
it will be interesting to see how this works.  if you-someone contacts
me, i would be surprised and greatly appreciative.

thank you, xavian

Xavian,

You'd have better luck talking to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with any
specific problems you have.

This list is for nitty-gritty discussion of some of FreeBSD's guts.
While the folks here are friendly enough, they aren't really
interested in answering basic questions and helping new users.

You might also check out the freebsd-newbies list.

Regards,
Michael

Well, your best bet is the freebsd website http://www.freebsd.org and
in particular http://www.freebsd.org/projects/newbies.html should be of
help to you. You may also wish to subscribe to the -questions mailing
list (make sure you understand how to do this at
http://www.freebsd.org/support.html#mailing-list ).

Also, your request is off topic for this list, make sure you understand
the charter of each list before posting to it.

Otherwise, welcome on board
