I could be mistaken about this but I believe that the *RC2 is the mini-install version. I'm not sure about the differences but I would go with the full set. If you don't need all the port binaries and extras, CD #1 from the 4 CD set should be sufficient. Tom -----Original Message----- From: Christopher C Spasov [mailto:spasov@acsu.buffalo.edu] Sent: Monday, July 22, 2002 9:35 PM To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: question about downloading iso images I'm interested in downloading iso images for FreeBSD 4.6 from ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ISO-IMAGES-i386/ and then having them burned to CD's so I can install FreeBSD. I currently boot win 98 and I'm interested in creating a dual-boot configuration. I see that there is an iso image for 4.6.1-RC2.iso and also a folder marked 4.6 where I can get the 4 CD complete set. I think 4.6.1-RC2.iso is some update or something. If I want 4.6 complete, do I download the 4 iso's from the 4.6 folder, then download 4.6.1-RC2.iso so that I would have a 5cd set that can be used to install FreeBSD on my system?? Or, how different is 4.6.1-RC2.iso from the 4 cd set and why is it there?? Thanks.
