If you want to resell the ISO images provided by freebsd.org on the
ftp site I think there is a README file there that gives permission.
If you want to resell the additional CD images sold by
e.g. freebsdmall.com then you'd need to obtain permission from them,
since they own the compilation copyright. If you want to construct
your own additional CD images then you can do that any way you like.
The only thing to be aware of is that some packages available on the
ftp site may not be sold, according to the license terms provided by
the original authors.
