I see that FreeBSD has linux emulation.

How do I use it?
What are its limitations?
Is there a way to tie ports into the linux shit? Crazy q' but I had to ask ;D

I dunno. I think thats it. I got a buddy coming over with Free 5. I plan on wiping my RedHat system and going full bore with that. I will more than likely be trying LindowsOS out on the spare. That seems rather interesting. OF all the hype, will THAT be worth it ;D

Freebsd supports linux emulation. along w/ other types of emulation. it asks you right in the install if you wish to enable linux binary compatability. it's not recommended to run this on any kinda production box though. when you do this you can do some things like play unreal tournament 2003 or other linux programs.. if you should also ever desire to and if you ever have this desire i should man ho pimp smack you. but you can install redhat rpm's
