Hi, I am having a heck of a time getting this installed... I'm a newbie to unix and was wondering if anyone knew step by step how cuz freebsd's site is 2 complicated for me. If you could maybe even log in to my server, and do it for me that would also be great! $10 paypal to someone who can do it successfully for me!

Thanks

Go to your local book store/library and check out Linux for Dummies. It would help us all!:D

What creid said :stickout

Or you can go to Google and look for HOWTO's on specific things - they're always helpful.

Just $10? :)

try this: check if you have ports installed: /usr/ports (usually)

then do this:

#whereis linux_base
linux_base: /usr/ports/emulators/linux_base

if you get that output, then

# cd /usr/ports/emulators/linux_base
# make install
# make clean

and enjoy :) if that helps, you can still pay me $9.99 ;)

Wow, people will pay $10 for a stranger to log into their computer and give the stranger a root access ... I found this really interesting!

cheers,

$10 + root access :rolleyes:

It should be $100 + root access :stickout

when tried make install, had something like this:

...
>> Attempting to fetch from ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/rpm/.
fetch: ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/rpm/redhat-release-7.1-1.noarch.rpm: Host not found
>>Couldn't fetch it -please try to retrieve this
>>port manually into /usr/ports/distfiles/rpm and try again.
*** Error code 1

What's happening?
