To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Date: Fri, 2 Jul 1999 10:13:42 -0600 (CST) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL25] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG We plan to do an ftp installation of 3.2, but instead of doing it to ftp.freebsd.org, we'd like to have previously downloaded the entire contents to another local machine so that the installation will be faster. Is there one huge file we can download from somewhere under ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.ORG/pub/FreeBSD/3.2-RELEASE/ and place on a local ftp server, and install from there? Please point me in the right direction so I can RTFM. Thanks very much. (Yes, we should have bought the 3.2 CD, and we will, but the switchover is urgent and we can't wait for the CD to arrive.) -T.
