Comments about proposed FreeBSD GCIN VirtualBox VM image
Comments from gavin@:
- setting em1 to dhcp
- smaller resolution than 1280x1024
- US keyboard mapping - the most popular, but documenting how to change that is worth doing
- gpk-update-icon kills X11. Not sure how that can be an image problem (Load average is around 20 all the time)
- The image lacks pdftex etc, so you can't make the PDF versions of the documentation (needs jadetex and teTeX packages installing)
- Maybe tcsh or bash rather than csh for the gcin user account? More user friendly
- Having subversion-freebsd installed and a source tree checked out anonymously ("svn co svn://svn.freebsd.org/base/head/") would be nice, perhaps both for head and stable/9
