• what filesystem does pc-bsd use? Currently I'm using linux with ext2--and although it doesn't have all the frills of journaled filesystem I like it just fine as I am more an enthusiast--I like it for its speed. Especially since I'm stuck with a celeron 1.7ghz proc right now :( If ufs is used how does it compare with ext2 and do you think my low-end machine will be able to handle it? TIA William

• I have a dual intel 700 mhz system (AMI BIOS), I have at times had FreeBSD (up to and including 5.3) with no installation issues whatsoever. I have successfully loaded PC-BSD on older machines, but when I try to load it on this one, I get the desktop, then about 15 seconds later it reboots. Any info you could providew would be greatly appreciated, as this box is my primary.
