Nik Clayton 3a6361c32c The Handbook conversion has changed the names of some of the generated
HTML files (not all of them, just some of them).

Fix up the broken references to point to the correct files.

This has not touched the release notes in releases/*/*.  I'm not sure
whether they should remain as historical record of what was shipped or
not.  About 5 of them now have a couple of broken links each, which will
be trivial to fix.

<h2>Additional Resources</h2>
<p>www.FreeBSD.org is not the only place to get information on FreeBSD
and various independent efforts have also produced a great deal
of useful information on FreeBSD:</p>

of the original architects of BSD at U.C. Berkeley, teaches two

<li><p><a href="http://www.computerbits.com/">Computer Bits</a>, an Internet

FreeBSD related articles in their column titled

<br>These articles cover everything from setting up

<p>Online documentation is useful, but any serious FreeBSD
user should consider getting some of the books
listed here. Most books that cover BSD systems apply well
