What is the difference between linux and net bsd? I know that this is
a stupid question, but i have to know because the linux is so much
easier to install that i am changing my mind about the bsd advantage.
Besides, i think that commercial unix operating systems are much more
reliable abd esasier to install, why can't make a windows style setup
program and a dos-based installer?
why does not have information about the differences between the dos
and bsd type of partitions?
Please, if anybody there know how this problem can be overcomed, i
would be very glad.
Just one more question. Why netbsd is so incompatibble with the other
unix partners, such as minix and linux? And why do we have to wait
for the kernel to boot up before it can be run the install program?
I think i am being a little petulant but since i dont have any
knowledge of the unix operating system, please, tell me if i can
network with another computer running the bsd system, but with the
different central processing unit?
Thanks for your patience and answer.
