Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Is there a file set archive availible for Free BSD to simplify downloading and installation via FTP? What I need is an easy to copy archive (a compressed archive with paths intact) to copy "all" or "as many as possible" files from the FTP site to my local hard drive, from which I can then install the OS on a local system using local files. Alternatively, Will BSD installer allow me to dial via modem, log on to my ISP, and then, using TCP/IP (OR OTHER PROTOCOL) allow me to access the download site?
