Hello, I know this is coming a while after this original topic was
posted but I just got the same PCMCIA card and did some searching and
didn't find any info about the card being supported as of yet.

could do to help. I've got
Hello everyone -
I recently decided to give FreeBSD 5.1 a try (I've only been running 4.8
for a little bit) so I chose to do a minimal install and build what I
have to from the ports tree. I did the minimal install (along with man
pages and ports) and everything seemed to be going well until I
reinstall in the bash2 port dir?

Hello -
I'm fairly new to FreeBSD and was wondering if there are any other
programs out there for secure deletion. I know that you can use the -P
flag with rm to overwrite files but you can't specify the iterations of
overwriting.
What I'm looking for is something similar to (or exactly like)
of it. I've attached the autoclave.sh
script (as long as attachments are allowed, ask me for it if you don't
get the attachment).

Thank you very much. I'll just modify autoclave.sh to use gshred
instead of shred.

I'm trying to install FreeBSD BETA #6 onto my computer but the burned ISO won't boot.
The boot is stalling just after detecting my CD-RW drive. I'm not sure if it's with
the CD-RW detecting or with mounting the root file system. I also had the same
problem when I CVSUPed my system from 5.2.1
When I was using 4.10 I had no problem with the time zones. I too am in the central
time zone, Minnesota, USA. Did you accidentally select to use daylight savings time,
or choose not to use it?? If you are in a CST/CDT area you'll switch to CST on Oct.
