VM/WM support on FreeBSD 8.0.

In case anyone would be interested:

Operating system    FreeBSD 8.0
Webmin version      1.490
Virtualmin version  3.75 Pro
Theme version       7.5
Time on server      10/Dec/2009 13:14
Kernel and CPU      FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE on amd64
Perl version        5.008009
Postfix version     13
Apache version      2.2.13
PHP version         5.2.11
MySQL version       5.0.88

And it works ;-)

P.S. With small hack in install.sh ;-)

Nice work expro!

Out of curiosity, what was the hack you made in the install.sh script?

It was a trivial one:

Thanks for giving it a try, expro!

We've added a link for 8.0 to our FreeBSD repository, so the hack is no longer needed. I'll need to do a bit of testing before adding it to the supported OS list, but that should happen in the next few days.
