I have been "using" Linux for a few months now, but it is unstable. It keeps on having "kernel panics" -- sometimes once every week or so, and sometimes several times a day. Is FreeBSD more stable? I found the 2.05 release CD-ROM in Akihabara today, so I bought it to try it out. I am curious to hear if people find it more stable than Linux. Also, if anybody has any hints on turning my system into a FreeBSD system from Linux I would appreciate it. I don't care if I have to delete the Linux stuff, except I would like to keep the X-Window configuration files, since they took forever to figure out.
