I am trying to install Free-BSD on a Pentium-II machine with 10 GB hard disk space. I have downloaded the kern.flp and mfsroot.flp and image copied them on to the floppies and booted my system with those floppies. Now when it prompts for the further installation I have selected the "ftp passive" because i have a firewall to my lab. but it says could not log on to the ftp. My question is If I want to load it from a CD. What should I write on the CD from the ftp site. I am too confused with the directories in the ftp site. Please help me what to download from the ftp site. And are there any bootable images for the complete installation process in the ftp site. Thanks in advance.
