Do you end up with the X-server, etc., all functioning as before, or is there
a lot of cleanup to do afterwards?

6.1 comes out. I am getting
Hi,
I have been trying to add a second IDE hard drive. I can't seem to get it
mounted, or to get what I put into sysinstall and what comes out when I use
the command line to agree.
I can use sysinstall and then run newfs:
bsd# newfs /dev/ad1s1c
/dev/ad1s1c: 39205.5MB (80292804 sectors) block

how do I setup make.conf to automatically use the new compiler?
Is there any way to set this new compiler as the default (such as
building the OS), without causing issues? Or would that be just a
royal pain in the posterior that is not worth the effort?

Don't. But if you insist on doing that you could try putting
CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc40
CXX=/usr/local/bin/g++40
into /etc/make.conf. Just be aware that it will

I'm having problems installing FreeBSD V6.0 on an HP (ne Compaq) desktop PC.
The install appears to go fine from CD, or via FTP, but on rebooting the
installed boot loader halts with a register dump and BTX halted error
message. So no rotating curser, no kernel messages just the dump and error
It seems that there is some problem with your glib. You might need to
upgrade it. Note that portupgrade isn't working for glib/gtk 2.8.x upgrade.
You need to use gnome_upgrade212.sh instead, check /usr/ports/UPDATING for
details.
cheers,

Hello,
I've been playing off and on with FreeBSD for a bit of time now, but I
would still consider myself a relative newbie. I've read enough and played
enough to know how to install applications from ports (e.g., I was able to
successfully install Moria just by reading the pages I could find).

If the port you installed was relatively recent, you just need
mysql_enable=YES in your rc.conf.
If it's an older port, look for a sample startup

As I understand it, up until recently (advent of rcNG ??)
that was the default, i.e. ports routinely installed foo.sh in
