OK, it sounds like I need to make an(other) entry in the errata file.

What about something like:

The tools/ directory of a FreeBSD CDROM distribution typically contains
some DOS programs for i386 machines, such as fdimage and fips.  This
directory was inadvertently omitted from the 4.4-RELEASE ISO images
generated by the FreeBSD Project.  The contents of the tools/ directory
are, however, available by anonymous FTP at ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/
FreeBSD/tools (many mirrors also have a copy of this directory).

(Use your imagination to get the right markup.)

How's that?

Bruce.
