There is no one file. See http://www.phear.net/~jim/FreeBSD/dl_for_dos_install.txt for the files you'll need to download to your dos partition to install FreeBSD from there. Also, I suggest reading the FAQ, and the handbook at http://www.freebsd.org/. > i have win98, is that compatible with Free BSD? > Not sure what you mean here. You can't run FreeBSD _from_ Win98 if that's what you mean. It will exist on the same hard drive with Win98, and you'll be able to choose which one to boot into though. Read the handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook.html) for more details.
