I've tried to install FreeBSD but find it amazing that you can only install it on a primary partition? (unlike Linux which will happily live anywhere). So because my 1TB drive is already full of OS's and my only space is 50GB on my extended partion I appear to be stuffed? Very archaic if that's the case!
@TheTorminator D means Dependency. It is like if you for instance do into the gnome section and click on the actual package, it will say X, but all of the things required for gnome to work properly will have a D.
@LATINO2434 I've tried it in a VM. While thoroughly enjoyable, I prefer minimal installs configured with a few apps and a WM, not the added bloat that KDE (or even a light environment like LXDE adds).
I tried installing this on my netbook today, and didn't get it... This video seems to clear up the problems I ran into (along with happening across the right bit of the FreeBSD Handbook).
Kyle, your sound is very, very low on this video. Thanks for the tutorial though!

I torrented the ISO, but it always trouble mounting everything... Is there a reliable website I can install it from?

Am I doing something wrong while partitioning? I keep getting Status 36 when it tries to create the root filesystem.
