Hey folks. I've been a FreeBSD user for a good while, and with the 5.3 release, I've been trying to figure out the details of each of the release ISOs. The Lehey book, the online handbook, release notes, and whatnot never mentions the purpose of each. The install instructions simply say "insert the installation CD". I've always assumed this referred to disk1. I've never needed to use disk2 in the install, so what's it for? What's the bootonly disk for? What's the mininst disk for? (I'm guessing it means minimum install) Can anyone point me to the details if they exist online?
