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.

|
|
<P>FreeBSD requires a PC-type personal computer running with an Intel,
|
|
AMD, Cyrix, or compatible 386, 486, or Pentium CPU. You computer needs
|
|
an ISA, EISA, VESA, or PCI bus. You will also need 5 megabytes of RAM to
|
|
install FreeBSD (but 4 megabytes to run it after installation). For best
|
|
performance, you should have 8 megabytes or more. 60MB of disk space is
|
|
required for a minimal installation.</P>
|
|
|
|
<P>FreeBSD supports most popular Ethernet adaptors, SCSI controllers,
|
|
IDE hard drives, multiport serial cards, CD-ROM drives, tape drives, sound
|
|
cards, mice, and other hardware. See both the <A HREF="&base/FAQ/FAQ.html">Frequently
|
|
Asked Questions list </A>and the &a.latest.not;release
|
|
notes</A> for complete information on supported hardware.</P>
