hi,

For some reason, trying to do an FTP install crashes my 486 machine (which
unfortunately, doesn't appear to allow the CDROM drive to work at the same
time as my HD).  So I'd like to try a floppy install.  It says I should copy
files from the "/bin" directory but I have no idea where the /bin directory
on ftp.freebsd.org is.

Hope you can help!

thanks,
- jeev
