+Welcome to the ALPHA release of FreeBSD 2.0 - the /- _ `-/ '
+first public snapshot of our new 4.4BSD Lite based (/\/ \ \ /\
+operating system environment. This install proce- / / | ` \
+dure is also at the ALPHA stage, and contains only O O ) / |
+the minimum functionality required by an `-^--'`< '
+*EXPERIENCED* person to install the system. (_.) _ ) /
+It is our hope, of course, that the feedback `.___/` /
+provided from this snapshot will `-----' /
+greatly assist us in making the release <----. __ / __ \
+of 2.0 much more user friendly. Your <----|====O)))==) \) /====
+comments and criticisms are very <----' `--' `.__,' \
+valuable to us, so please don't hesitate | |
+in contacting us! Full details on where and \ / /\
+how to provide feedback are given below. ______( (_ / \______/
+ ,' ,-----' |
+This install procedure is ALPHA code, and `--{__________)
+may very possibly *DESTROY* the contents of your
+ENTIRE DISK! Please do not proceed with this installation
+unless you've adequately backed up your data first!
+
+If any errors occur during this installation, you can see them
+by toggling over to the alternate screen. Type ALT-F2 to switch
+to the debugging screen and ALT-F1 to switch back to the install screen.
+The debugging output on the second screen may be very valuable to us in
+understanding your bug report, so please be sure to take note of it when
+reporting any failures in the installation! Thanks!
+
+Menus and scrolling output windows may be traversed with the arrow,
+PageUp/PageDown and TAB keys. To suspend the installation at any point,
+hit ESC twice. If you've ever dealt with a DOS installation before, then
+you'll probably know how to deal with this.
+
+For a more complete description of what's new in this release, please
+see the release notes.
+
+For more documentation on this system, it is recommended that you purchase
+the 4.4BSD Document Set from O'Reilly Associates and the USENIX Association.
+ISBN 1-56592-082-1 We have no connection with O'Reilly, we're just
+satisfied customers!
+
+Have fun, and please let us know of any problems you encounter with
+this release!
+
+Comments should be sent to:

+
+
+Please have patience if your questions are not answered right away -
+this is an especially busy time for us, and our volunteer resources
+are often strained to the limit (if not somewhat past!).
+
+Thanks!
