Unlike Redhat, you don't need ISO images to install FreeBSD.  ISO
images are incredibly bandwidth-unfriendly and while useful for
systems which aren't directly connected to the internet, if you have
Internet connectivity it's much easier to just download the install
floppy disk image and do an FTP-based install.
