I second this.  I&#39;ve found those posts to be amazingly good. <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Feb 24, 2010 at 5:23 AM, Eric Van Hensbergen <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:ericvh@gmail.com">ericvh@gmail.com</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

When I was learning FreeBSD I found this site helpful:<br>
<a href="http://www.freebsddiary.org/" target="_blank">http://www.freebsddiary.org/</a><br>
<br>
I think the thing that really makes the FreeBSD Diary work is a<br>
lack of grand ambitions.  The guy who maintains it doesn&#39;t try to<br>
cover everything, and generally doesn&#39;t try to explain things he<br>
doesn&#39;t understand.  He doesn&#39;t normally try to update old entries,<br>
and often goes months without doing anything.  But he has been<br>
doing this for 12 years now, and has accumulated a good collection<br>
of articles.  As far as I can tell, whenever he needs to do something<br>
moderately complicated which is not well documented, he makes notes<br>
and then describes how he did things and posts it.<br>
<br>
It would be nice to have something like that for plan9.<br>
