Hi,

I am new to install FreeBSD OS on my PC.

I have a old PC with floppy drive and 1GB hard drive without CD.

I looked the web instruction for instruction to install the OS

I formatted a floppy disk with size /A:1.44 and try to copy kern.flp 
onto the floppy. Since the floppy has only 1.38MB of free space (even 
though I formatted with size for 1.44MB) I can not really copy the file 
over to the floppy.
I am therefore stucked.

Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Thanks,

PC Wang
