I just installed freeBSD 7.1 on my inspiron 9100 desktop replacement notebook. I am now trying to install KDE 3 to use as my desktop environment however the installation is taking what seems like an extraordinarily long time. I started the installation this morning around 9 am local time or so and it is now 1pm local time. The laptop has a 3ghz processor and 512mb ram. is the install supposed to take this long or could i possibly be looking at a problem with the install process?<br><br /><hr />You live life online.
