Hi!

Seems a bit odd to sell FreeBSD CDs to promote Linux. :-) You are
aware that Linux and FreeBSD are two different operating systems,
though they both belong to the Unix-family? Other than that there
are no legal issues I'm aware of. Just download the ISO's, burn
them on CD's and sell as many as you can. What would be very app-
reciated though, is if you donate some of the income you make to
the FreeBSD Project.

Best regards,
Paul
