Hi again,

I had promised to share more details about the FreeBSD installation and
configuration on my new laptop. Unfortunately the laptop compatibility
list didn't like my entry and exited with an error. The webmaster
wouldn't listen, so I decided to funnel the information into a different
outlet. Please see the following entries in my blog for the full
story:

I might add further information to this blog if I run into additional
problems.

Thanks again to all who helped to make this work one way or another.

regards,
Markus
