Maybe someone in the list has some better suggestion, but as for me,
if I had a good connection I would install over FTP :)
Have a look at 2.2.6 Prepare the Boot Discs of the link:

Subject: Best way to start over....


: Hey all,
:
: I am trying to make over a mail server that I've inherited.  It is
running
: FreeBSD 4.0.   And is partitioned in a way that I don't like.  The
machine
: doesn't have a CD ROM drive, but has a working system on it and the
ability
: to get online.  What is the best way for me to wipe this machine and
: re-install the latest FreeBSD release?  Can I do this using the
current
: system or will I have to boot from floppies?
:
: Brendan
