It doesn't come as a single compressed file. The simplest way to do it is to download the boot.flp file from the floppies directory, use rawrite.exe to make a boot floppy from it, and reboot with the floppy in the drive. If you're connected to the Internet at the time, the installation program will FTP down all the other files it needs. > I go into the current > or as your message said at the bottom of the page...

Download the text documents and read them carefully - they're there to help you. -- James Raynard, Edinburgh, Scotland james@jraynard.demon.co.uk http://www.freebsd.org/~jraynard/
