FreeBSD tryout
Hello,everyone! :)I am new to this BSD forum and would like to listen any suggestions regarding the right way to install FreeBSD.
I am using Slackware right now but want to install FreeBSD and try it out.As I could not find a complete FreeBSD installation guide for newbie,I would love to hear from you guys if you have any links which is for newbie to install FreeBSD. I would be appreciated if you guys can send me some links regarding the installation guide of FreeBSD. ;) Thanks. |
I think if you have installed Slack before then installing FreeBSD won't be too much of a challenge. Make sure you understand how devices are named because its different from Linux. Also read the handbook and faqs on the FreeBSD website for tips.

I feel relieved after you said that the difference of FreeBSD and Slackware is minimal. I will check out the handbook or something this few weeks.:D |

reddazz,thanks for your reply. :)
I have installed FreeBSD yesterday and found that,it was quite a huge differences between it and Slackware.For one,some of the command in Slackware can't be used.Moreover,the detection of hardware is not as good as Slackware. However,after I read the book regarding ports in FreeBSD,it is a nice function to install and uninstall software easily.I like it very much. ;) |
