FreeBSD note

Updated: January 1, 2008May 10, 2006

When building a new FreeBSD kernel, you are instructed to execute

boot -s

to boot into single user mode. I was unable to locate anything executable named 'boot' on my system. Instead I did

shutdown now

Book Recommendation:

Ruby Programming for Medicine and Biology provides programmers an introduction to how the Ruby programming language works with modern biological research. It has a basic intro to Ruby, and then follows with discussions of about 100 Ruby scripts, covering the most common computational tasks in the field of biomedicine. You will learn how the scripts work, and how they might be implemented in real-world situations. This is a must-have if you work with Ruby in the bioinformatics and computational genomics fields.
