I am stuck having to install FreeBSD via floppies. I would like to install 5.0. can I use the same way the handbook shows for 4.7? Or is there a way I can do a mini install and get the rest from my CD ROM. My CD wont boot, the headless install failed the ftp failed the lap link failed the BackPack CDROM failed. It's an IBM ThinkPad 765D. So now I am down to this. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG] On Behalf Of Asenchi Sent: Wednesday, February 26, 2003 11:45 PM To: Mike Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Floppy install On Thu, 2003-02-27 at 00:52, Mike wrote: > In the 4.7 release there is a /bin in 5.0 there is a /base will the > instructions from > http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-diff > -m > edia.html > Still work?
