Hi Przemysław!
You certainly didn't do anything wrong. Nor anyone else did.

There are threads that go unanswered because there aren't people in
position to provide feedback. Either due to lack of knowledge,
experience, time, w/e. Please remember that our community isn't
exactly crowded, so there are a lot of unexplored territories.

Sometimes it helps to join us in dragonflybsd channel @ efnet and ask
there or reply to your own thread preferably with a small follow up to
raise awareness or just figure things out yourself (which is very
difficult).

I hope you don't hold any hard feelings against us :)

Best regards,
Stathis
