Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" X-Server: VPOP3 V1.2.0d Unregistered Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi! I was wondering if it is possible to install from a windows'95 box, which is sharing the FreeBSD CD1 via FTP? Are there any issues reguarding filenames, lengths, etc. ? Is it then possible to boot from the boot floppy and give the IP address of the Win'95 box, and install from there?
