I followed the directions for using 'fdimage.exe' to make my boot floppy to install FreeBSD.

The 'boot.flp' file is 1.47m under DOS and 'fdimage.exe' just keeps returning an error message "source file too big"

Please help (or tell me a better way to install FreeBSD), I have TCP/IP to the net over a T1..

Sincerely,
Andrew Steffek
