I have made the boot.flp, a free partition, have : c:\freebsd\bin sitting there with all the stuff from 2.1.5 release bin : directory. All the stuff? Including the bin.inf bin.mtree and install.sh files? : The install is ok until the end, I get a message something like "bin : dstibution not on Wds01". But it is! I got the user manual for 2.1.0, : it says I also need root.flp in the c:\freebsd\floppies directory, is : this required for 2.1.5. If so it's not noted in the 2.1.5 : install.txt. Well even if i did need it, I can't find it anywhere. ftp://ftp.au.freebsd.org/pub/freebsd/2.1.5-RELEASE/floppies has the boot.flp in it.. but no root.flp.
