I have never installed FreeBSD so I have the following questions:

I have an AMD-DX4 100/VESA 8Mb and an AMD-DX4 120/PCI 16Mb system,
both with IDE hard-drives and IDE ATAPI CD-ROMS.

Can I install FreeBSD on these ?  Which version should I install ?  I
have some experience with Linux, but I would appreciate some advice to
get a good start with FreeBSD.

Thanks,

Ingemar Hulthage
