Maybe I am late for this already, in this case sorry. But I just checked and there is a much closer copy (geographically) that you can get. At: ftp://ftp7.de.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/2.2.8-RELEASE thanks to the TU Clausthal. Also, just for the archives, there is a RELEASE/SNAP finder which can help quickly in such situations or similar ones because it is updated daily. (Also has cvsup and ctm info) The URL is: http://www.itworks.com.au/~gavin/FBSDsites.php3 Good luck!
