Well, this is a real problem. I have nothing where I am to build and burn an ISO, and I am trying to work with someone several states away through an IKVM switch. The server-to-be is on a port on the switch and I need them to download the ISO via FTP and burn it to a disc and drop it in the tray. Right now I'll happily pay $50 to to anyone who can provide me with an ISO of 8.3 stable in a location that I can provide to the person in missouri so he can download it and create the DVD. I'm serious. Paypal is at the ready. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rick Miller" <vmiller@hostileadmin.com> To: "Joe Mays" <mays@win.net> Sent: Thursday, October 04, 2012 9:55 PM Subject: Re: FreeBSD 8.3 with LSI MegaRAID 9265-8i > On Thu, Oct 4, 2012 at 9:38 PM, Joe Mays <mays@win.net> wrote: >>> Which ISO?
