 free bsd 3.4
Reading the manuel that came with freebsd, well, gota say I'm not impressed. Not recommended for beginners, they dont get you into the os fast enough, and bring some advanced topics way too early.

Well, try a newer version. FreeBSD 4.7 is the current stable release. version 5.0 is out now too. I also recommend this:

Those "teach yourself in 24 hours" books seem to be geared towards newbies.

HPFS is OS/2 and NT 3.5
Linux uses Ext2/3 and a swap.
