Well, i'm certainly glad there are friendly folks here, thank you all. I guess the need for running "configure" first is gone here.
I'm having trouble finding info on how to mount a thumb drive. My primary home machine is a laptop, with a Broadcom card, and since it is not detected, I have to download things from the source here (booted into FreeBSD). I promise not to bother you folks much further, but is there perhaps a simplified version you might give me of the device lettering system so I can figure out how to mount partitions/ devices? Truthfully, i'm attracted to plan9 like a super-magnet and I don't know why since this OS (I might presume) isn't geared toward the daily/ desktop @ home user. Instant messaging, burning CD/DVD things, not really there? All that aside though, i've got the feeling i'm going to work at every route possible to earn the admirable title of a "9fan". Maybe I just love the bunny :) I thought about installing the 9tools (including rio) right here in my home-sweet-home BSD land, but there's certainly nothing better than the real thing. Lol, I apologize for the rant. Take care all. Thank you. -Q
