Setting up LVM

[jedi]

Hey ozitraveller!  You can get the latest FreeBSD ISO from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/9.1/

I would grab the 'mem-stick' iso and use 'dd' to make a bootable USB image and install away!  It's not quite the same as your regular garden variety distro of Linux, so you might want to read a little about it first.  I have the 32-bit version 9.0 installed on a 12 or 13 year old laptop, that has given it new life!  However, there was a learning curve for me to get up and over before I was successful at it!  That said, it was a blast to play with...
