I am just getting started on this project, and I've run into multiple snags. |

The first and worst is getting media that has a GUI to do the deed. My question is, since the wiki recommends using PCBSD, is the DVD live, or will I have to get a USB stick in order to have my live environment? I found a copy of the freesbie live CD after much searching, but it is just about as worthless a windows install disk. I can't get anything to function under it, even with the GUI. |

I did have a chroot session going under the standard FreeBSD DVD using its so-called live CD function. However, I could only emerge --sync. Just trying to emerge portage caused all manner of grief. |

So, I am making some forward progress, but not a lot. The portage tree is up to date, but that's where it stops. Any general purpose pointers would be appreciated. I really dig on Gentoo, and FreeBSD does have its strong points. I'd love to see what the two can do together. |
