This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0053_01C0F4B8.0FD08EE0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hey Tig, The very fact that you are considering replacing Win98 with FreeBSD already elevates you way above the "stupid people" category. ;-) This should sort you out: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO_8859-1/books/handbook/install.html Patrick. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Tig Sent: 14 June 2001 01:52 To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Install Questions Here's my dillema. I'm wanting to learn more, so I though I'd build me a box. I did read the install and readme.txt, but was curious ot know if there was a way to grab the files and then burn them to a cd? This laptop currently has Win98. Is it possible for me to format c: /s and then install? Since win98 emulates and isn't true dos, is this a problem? My guess is you'll probably pass around this email for a good laugh, but I thought I would ask anyways. Remeber, there are no stupid questions, just stupid people.
