Dear Patient Person,
 
I am at the site:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mirrors-ftp.html
 
Section: A.2 FTP Sites
 
the address for downloading FreeBSD is:
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/
 
in the README file on this page it is stated that:
 
"FreeBSD-stable/
    This contains files relating to FreeBSD-stable, the stable
    code branch of FreeBSD."
 
So I go back to the ftp window and click on the shortcut:
FreeBSD-stable
 
This directs me to page:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-stable
 
This page does not exist, and I get a Page Not Found Error.
 
============================================
 
I am trying to install FreeBSD on an Intel 100 MHz computer with 16 Megs of RAM
Is this possible and if so which version should I choose? I am applying for a systems operator position and think it would be very beneficial if I could show them that I have at least some familiarity with a network. Any help would be greatly greatly appreciated!
 
should I go here???
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/5.4/
 
 
Sincerely,
-jim
