I'm waiting for a copy. I choose to write a review of it for our magazine, however, on the strength of the original Installing & Running FreeBSD by the same author (Greg Lehey). If it's as good as the first book, you'll love it. That book covered just about all of the installation aspects and was very readable. One of the few documents in the freeos systems that actually reads like a book and can be read cover to cover. I can't say for sure "buy it" but I know the author's good and worth his salt. Hope that helps -Mike
