The CDROM is a PCMCIA CDROM, so may not be supported by FBSD at all.

In the handbook it talks about copying Freebsd to a dos partition to
install.

However it talks about a /bin directory which doesn't seem to exist,
either on the CDROM, or the FTP site.

Is this a feature that was documented in the handbook that never
actually made it?
