I have been trying for the past couple of days to install a version newer than 2.1.0 of freebsd with floppies. I have been downloading the bin and manpages files for 2.1.0 and have no problem, using the root.flp prior to loading the bin and manpages distribution. Your later versions don't have a root.flp and after the 'commit' step I am told to insert the floppy into the A drive.. The Floppy has a:/bin/aa.bin , DOS files on it and needs to be extracted. I have read your instructions many times and I can't get the distribution bin or manpages to load. Suggestions please....I have no problem with 2.1.0 installing with floppies.
