Hallo FreeBSD-Advocacy,
i write to you this mail hoping i find a solution on how i can use
this program which i've heard many individuals saying it has no
competitor on the market. well, sometime ago, i designed a plan to
open up a small VoIP project and i contacted one Interxchange company
who told me that i'd to install FreeBSD OS. without wasting time, i
downloaded the latest FreeBSD 6.2-i386. i even went to much extent by
ordering some two CDs from UK but then the major catastrophe faced me
on how the program works. after installation and also making a user
account i logged in but there was a message telling me to check for
newer errata files. i'm confused because first i can't see a desktop
despite me seeing how the desktop looks like at
[1]http://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resource=major
what should i do and why are this endless errata messages coming my
way? how am i going to be able to see the desktop and work with the
program? how am i going to be able to install any other program on my
pc? do u've any solution to all these obstacles?
thanks alot with regards.
