I have a Walnut Creek 2.2.2 CDROM. My computer configuration (ATAPI CDROM drive on the 2nd controller, an inability to move it to the first controller, ...) has made it difficult for me to install FreeBSD (and I've been unsuccessful in loading from a FAT partition, as the install program has trouble mounting it, even after the partition editor has found it) In any case, I believe that 2.2.5 may have better ATAPI support, but I don't have 2.2.5. I'd like to know if it's possible for me to download some small subset of 2.2.5 from cdrom.com, and then use that to install from my CD. Thanks for your help (and thanks to everyone who's helped so far), -David
