(I think the freebsd-install list needs to be killed.  It was intended
to be used for people working at the install programs, but most if not
all of them left, and some people notoriously seem to confuse the list
with questions@freebsd.org.  Jordan, any objections?)

Sorry, the old /sys/i386/boot/netboot/ is currently not supported at
all.  It'll only be able to load a.out kernels anyway (wich are
deprecated by now), and it requires some older a.out parts of the
toolchain which are only available to people who gradually upgraded
their systems from old a.out systems but which are no longer available
for freshly installed systems, not even in situations where the a.out
`compat' distributions have been installed.

I think there's a more recent version of network booting available
from the ports collection, but the actual name escaped me for the
moment.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
