mahesh2k 0 Report post Posted April 25, 2005 I m having linux distro (Mendrake) on My PC but i dont know what is BSD?I heard it is also linux like OS.Not sure if that is as user friendly as linux OS,BSD is superior than Windows and Linux.I heard that Apple's kernel is based on FreeBSD.Also many Hosting servers rum BSD.I heard that very few developers contribute for BSD's but all there BSD distro are excellent.Anyway is there any place where i can find place for BSD in detail.i wanna find out if BSD works on VMWARE or not.Running Linux OS on virtual machine is good way cause it saves so much time (Partitioning and booting thru cd etc.)Anyway tell me what BSD is?
