I would like to try FreeBSD on my machine, but I did not find any information regarding the ISO files on FreeBSD FTP sites. For example, in ISO directory for 7.0 release, I found these files: 7.0-RELEASE-i386-bootonly.iso 7.0-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso 7.0-RELEASE-i386-disc2.iso 7.0-RELEASE-i386-disc3.iso 7.0-RELEASE-i386-docs.iso 7.0-RELEASE-i386-livefs.iso Please could you tell me which files I exactly need to download & burn to install a "normal" FreeBSD installation? Do I need all three *-disc[n] discs? If so, is there a DVD version available? Maybe I am wrong, but I feel it shouldn't be necessary to waste 3 CDs from installation if I have a high-speed permanent Internet connection. So wouldn't just 1 DVD-RW do? Anyway, I believe that I'll enjoy FreeBSD and I'm looking forward to see it on my home machine and on my testing machine @ work :-) Thanks for your time!
