All of your installation options are available at www.freebsd.org. 
  Fastest and esiest is to the CD-Rom from www.cdrom.com , but you can 
also get the fdimage.exe program and the boot.flp file, create a boot 
disk and install from there (I've always used the CD).

Subject:  Installing from an MS-DOS partition


I'm a novice user planning to install FreeBSD from an MS-DOS partition.

The documentation says to download as many "dists" as you like  - but 
how
do I know which ones I need and/or might want? The  FTP directories are
huge.  Please tell me which files I should download to perform a novice
installation?

Thanks
