>The handbook is a monster, even technically interested people get lost >there. You know that, corebug. I completely disagree. The handbook is of excellent quality for a volunteer project. In particular, it is far ahead of any linux documentation effort I've seen. Indeed, it was the handbook that made me start using FreeBSD in the first place. In about 2003 I tried several linux distros, and got completely lost. The available documentation for linux, at least at that time, was not designed for a novice, certainly not at my level. In contrast, the FreeBSD handbook was very clear and allowed me to install and start using FreeBSD quickly and easily. This was version 4.9. Since then the quality of the handbook improved a lot. The handbook is certantly the first FreeBSD resource I would recommend to a FreeBSD novice.
