For some reasons, os.currentplatform() returns "generic" under FreeBSD  
(tested on 7.0), which is not defined in the platforms table and creates  
this error.

The workaround is to pass the platform name to first-setup.sh:

	./first-setup.sh --platform=freebsd

But near the end of the installation process, MtxRun fails to execute the  
binaries because it tries to find them in tex/texmf-generic.

At this stage, I have used the source command to setup the environment and  
executed texexec --make --all to finish up the installation.

So good so far, it seems to work, but I have no idea what's happening  
there.

Bye,
Dominique
