Do you have another machine that you could format the drive with? The
only other thing I can think of off the top of my head is to use the FTP
option, however, I'm not sure how you could establish an FTP connection
without any of the media? Good Luck.

Hello everyone.

I am trying to install FreeBSD on a (non-standard) machine that can't
boot from cds and also lacks floppy drive. The machine can boot dos.

The question: Is there anyway to make a Hard disk bootable in order to
start the FreeBSD installation program?

Thanks in advance

Rafael
