Well, I did it! I removed Linux and got FreeBSD 2.0.5 installed and
running! Now I have a few Q's that I can't seem to find answers to.
1) How do I keep the syslog messages from being echo'd to my
screen?
2) Why do I have to put ./ infront of commands in my current
dir that aren't in my path?
3) How do I get more virtual terminals? When I compiled the
kernel, it said 16, but I only get 3.
4) I compiled in floppy tape support, and it gets recognized
at boot time, but when I try to use mt, it says something
like device not configured.
5) Are there any docs for the cern-httpd? Or is there another
one that compiles easily for FreeBSD?
Many thanks to anyone who helps me! ;)
