It's not that simple. If this is the first time you install FreeBSD let me
suggest to use FreeBSD-Stable, which is currently at version 4.0. If you need
3.3 for some specific reason..
- you may search the BSD mirror sites for the 3.3-RELEASE tag marking the d/l
floppies, then install from those
- you may search the mirror sites for an older ISO CD-ROM image
- you may use a running copy of FreeBSD to get the 3.3-RELEASE sources from
CVS
