Anyway, readme files. They're on the FreeBSD CD-ROM: see README.TXT. Also see INSTALL.TXT, HARDWARE.TXT, and RELNOTES.TXT. They're available by ftp. Try either ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/README ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.1.0-RELEASE/README.TXT This site is less busy: ftp://ftp.neosoft.com/pub/FreeBSD/README ftp://ftp.neosoft.com/pub/FreeBSD/2.1.0-RELEASE/README.TXT Also on the web.
