Re: Explaining FreeBSD features

pages it has. In such cases one feels that the information asked should be somewhere else, not buried in a big manual. It may be more useful in such cases to just answer the question so it ends up in the mailing archive and comes up when someone searches for it. cali

Re: Installation instructions for Firefox somewhere?

be with portupgrade. Now I find that there's something even easier called porteasy, and you apparently don't need the entire ports tree to use it. this system is great :) so many different ways of accomplishing the same goal. there is also portmanager :) cali
