I guess I can mount_msdos and make it available for ftp? Should it be symlinked to a certain name for the installer to find it? Now I want to install FreeBSD on another dos-machine on the network. This machine doesn't have a floppy. Can I boot the install-floppy from dos? Leif Neland --- |Fidonet: Leif Neland 2:234/49 |Internet: leifn@swimsuit.roskildebc.dk
