After my hard drive's partition table was erased the other day, I installed FreeBSD 5.1. It was a painless install (less the pain that I'd felt to no cause of it) and I'm running it on my desktop right now. I recompiled the kernel to get sound working -- via adding one line, "device pcm", to /sys/src/i386/CUSTOM and recompiling and installing -- and it detected my school's network automatically. I'm doing fine on it.
