Dru Lavigne made me do it: I killed Debian, installed an unbootable Ubuntu, now I'm running FreeBSD 8.0 with GNOME

If you don't know Dru: she is the FreeBSD guru per se writer of the O'Reilly column FreeBSD Basics and author of BSD Hacks, The Best of FreeBSD Basics and Beginning PC-BSD (the newest work). So if you don't know her you aren't a FreeBSD user ;-)
