I have downloaded boot.flp twice in the past ten days but in both cases was unable to install over a PPP / FTP connection. I dial into my ISP PPP account through the install term, login and get a PPP started text message. Sometimes, term says "packet mode". It seems as if the connection is dropped within 5-10 secs (click) but even if I initiate the transfer immediately, I get errors. Sometimes, it says "logging into ftp@ftp.freebsd.org" for some time (300 secs?) and then says "unable to login to ftp.freebsd.org". Other times, it jumps right to "unable to login". P5-100 Intel motherboard, Sportster 28.8K internal modem on com3. Any idea what it going wrong? Thanks, Mike Larsen
