I completely agree. I am on an ethernet LAN (10 megabits a second) and even with this, I had some problems doing an FTP install of FreeBSD. Actually, the 4 CD set costs $40 or so, but I highly recommend getting the Complete FreeBSD (the book) with the 4 CD set. The book covers many of the basics and will mostly get you up and running. I believe the book/CD combo is around $70 or so. Anyway, check out www.freebsdmall.com, that's where they sell it. > As a fellow newbie, please allow me to *strongly suggest* that you save > yourself a few headaches and buy the 4-CD set from Walnut Creek > (http://www.cdrom.com). > > I have found, and continue to find, that the manual it comes with - not to > mention the fact that I don't have to figure out an FTP install - is more than > worth the $60 USD or so it costs. ----- Knight 1: We are now the Knights who say...
