You should also read the Handbooks's section on installation at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook7.html#7 and especially the FAQ (which has your exact question answered) at http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/FAQ24.html#24 . Then go to ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/3.0-RELEASE/ and grab all of the .TXTs and read them. A note: the handbook's installation guide refers to a boot disk image at ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.8-RELEASE/floppies/boot.flp but you should probably grab ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/3.0-RELEASE/floppies/boot.flp instead. --Ludwig Pummer ( ludwigp@bigfoot.com ) ICQ UIN: 692441 ( ludwigp@email.com ) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
