I downloaded them from.
ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/.2/FreeBSD/incoming/iso-3.0/

Adaptec Easy CD Creator which comes with a lot of the CD-R's I have
seen shipped will only burn it's own little type of images, and .iso's.  As
these
cd Images are .img files i am not sure whether they use the same internal
format or whatever it may be that would make them compatible/incompatible
perhaps you can burn them with EZCD.  I fear that it may not read the
RockRidge
extensions correctly and truncate the filenames to standard iso-9660 8.3
format.
But i haven't tried it yet...    Perhaps Gear or CDRWIN, which i hear are
better
than EZCD, will be able to do it, i do not know for sure.

But what i plan on doing tonight or tomorrow is perform a net-install of
version 3.0
(because i have an IDE CD-R) and making the CD using FreeBSD, because then
I know it will work.

Anyway, I doubt i've helped much but ya never do know.
