Experienced linux debian user, recently I smoothly moved to linux gentoo (BSD compliant) AND to FreeBSD 5.2.1.
1) I want to tailor my freeBSD slice according to my machine (gentoo experience is helpful!). Now, while i I know how to compile an application in /usr/ports I cannot find sources of the "base system" I had to install when starting the first installation from scratch. Where are those sources? 2) The questions' question: where can I read what are the options I can use with a certain source package and how can I use them when make(-ing) the program? 3) It goes without saying that many freebsd commands are the same as in linux but I cannot find the freebsd command equivalent to the linux command 'free' giving info about the size of memory used by the system's cache, buffers, swap, etc. Please help.
