In the FAQ on the webpage, they suggested using binary snapshots. So I went to do that via FTP, and found out that I need a current version of sysinstall. Normally, I'd just boot from floppies, but I don't have a floppy drive. What's the easiest way to get a current sysinstall with which to upgrade?
