Select the distribution which you want -I'd suggest 6.2- and the CPU family which matches your machine -for you it is i386. Burn the ISO images to CD and you're ready to go. Also, this is a great source of information: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/index.html . In case you encounter errors or have questions, first consider reading the related section of the hand book, e.g. it has a complete chapter dedicated to installation: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install.html HTH, Bahman
