Hello.
Is WINE usable on 6.3/i386?
I cannot seem to start any win32 program and before I spend time into
it, I thought I just ask.
My interest is almost limited to running a simple console app that does
very litte beyond reading a text file, processing it, and outputting
another text file.
Hi,
I downloaded the DVD ISO for FreeBSD 8.0 (i386) and verified the MD5
checksum before burning. With regards to choosing distributions for
installation, the handbook says
"If a graphical user interface is desired then a distribution set that
is preceded by an X should be chosen"

I can't speak to if WINE will work or nor, but if the app is so simple why not
use a native bsd/*nix app?

Because it doesn't exist and, even if it did, I have to use *that* app,

For win32 console applications try using wineconsole, if you aren't
already.
I've tried both, but both seem to hang with CPU at 100%, doing nothing.
If your app is a DOS application you would be better-off with
dosbox.
DosBox works as a charm, but this app is Win32.

Hi,
Way back it was very hard to install FreeBSD on this computer, do to

I've bin very reluctant to reinstall FreeBSD. Upgrading FreeBSD was
easy, until now. The FreeBSD 8.0 kernel says and refuces to boot.
