Probably a rounding thing.
If you're creating the installation floppies from DOS/Windows, get the
rawrite program to do it. Simply copying the *.flp files onto a
formatted disk won't work.
rawrite is available from the ftp.freebsd.org site. Read the
instructions on this page
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install-guide.html#INSTALL-FLOPPIES and
let me know if that helps.
