Dear freebsd developers,I want to install freebsd and I have come across something I feel if would be added will make it easier for me to install freebsd.You mention in the guide to use a tool called fdimage to copy the files onto the floppyies.How do I split a 2.81 MB file onto the file using the tool?It would be very helpful for a new bee as me if their would be a text example of the fdimage splitting the file from my C:\ drive to my A:\ drive using this tool. On my 1.44 MB floppy I tried doing it using those letters I believe if I remember /f but what is the use if their isn't any example. Another thing I want to know if after I install freebsd will I be able to un install it later on thru dos? Using format C:\ or Freebsd is a totally different and doesn't use dos I am a bit confused here some help to both of my questions would be useful I thank you for you time reading my letter and I hope to get some information that I need to install freebsd.
