Hello friends. I am new to Unix although i am very flexible to any programming language. i was a window user. Now, no more. I have decided myself to switch to unix.
Here is my problem:
I burned the free BSD into my new RW CD's. I inserted the bootable manager first then, it was scanning and doing its stuff but at last, it says select country and when, i try to selct the keyboard is disabled. All the keys dont work so, how can i select?
So, please any one help? i want to install this free BSD while the windows os is still there coz i dont want to mess my files there.
i want to use this free BSD to learn how the OS works and to do some stuff like unix network programming and possibly to play with TCP/IP suite
