Hi,
i'm installing FreeBSD in order to change my NT5.1
with Apache & ftp server.
I'm comming from IBM OS/390 mainframe and don't know
anything on Unix like systems. I'm a C/C++ developper too.

My question beeing very simple, i think you don't need
technical information, but see on * lines below.

Q : how to launch the "Kernel Configuration Menu" script
     as described on Ch 2.3.2 (fig. 2.1) ?

i don't have any option to do that on the Loader Menu (i tried all)
i tried to "grep-find" the script (or command) but fails.

* i'm using/booting from FreeBSD 5.2.1, disc-1
* boot0 & boot1 are Ok
* Loader Ok
* Sysinstall running Ok
Note : a mini-install of 5.2.1 is currently installed on my HDD
and seem to work properly. I would like to configure more
accurately my Kernel now.

Great thanks, FreeBSD is exactly what i want,
