I am trying to install FreeBSD on my computer.
I have the 4 disk set for 3.2. I tried installing from
the CD but FreeBSD does not find the CD drive
when it does the hardware probe. I've given up 
on trying to install from CD. 

I already patitioned the hard drive.
I have decided to install FreeBSD from the partition
 with   Microsoft Windows 98 already on it.  


My question is what files should I copy from the CD onto my
hard drive to get FreeBSD on my machine so
I can use FreeBSD with X and most of programs
a clueless newbie like myself would need to learn?


About my computer it is a hp 4440
AMD K6-2/333
64 MB ram
4 GB hard drive I intend to use 1.5 for FreeBSD
and lastly a 32X cd-rom drive that cannot be 
found during the hardware probe !
