Hello. I'm a blind user, and was wondering how to get 6.1-release to
install over serial. I've tried everything - hitting option 6, space,
boot -h cr, but nothing happens. unplugging the keyboard, nothing
happens. hitting space and typing boot -h - nothing. This is using a
cdrom disc1.
Any help

Hi list,
I'm trying to get a FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE (running GENERIC kernel) to do
vlan tagging.
I want to have several 'vlan interfaces' that can talk to their local
subnet and also use a default route.

I have a hard question to ask and I realize that there are thousand answers to
this question.
Here's a quick URL which can help decide on which Window Manager one
might use. It has a comprehensive list of many WM with descriptions
and screenshots.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Window_manager
How many out there are *still* running 4.x on their servers and desktops, for
similar fears?
We still have some old Compaq ML530 machines running FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE-p17.
They provide essential web services, mainly authentication and MySQL databases.
FreeBSD 5.x and 6.0 can't boot on this
Thank you to everyone who gave me some ideas. That was a great help.
It looks like I am going to need to install more then one WM and just
figure out which one suits my needs the best. Thanks again.
Sincerely,
Joshua Lewis
