Re: testing laptop based on bsd anyone

["Robin Wood" <dninja () gmail com>]

I had some time on my hands so just went for it and installed FreeBSD 6. The
base system starts up ok so now I've got to start loading all the tools on
it. I've left plenty of drive space so I can dual boot windows and linux if
needs be so everything should be catered for.

Off to get wifi working...
