(only the bin distrib) I've downloaded the bin directory of the 3.1-1990218-STABLE snap in my home directory (bin.?? + bin.mteee + CHECKSUM.MD5) With the boot floppies, I can't fetch the install files : - I've tried via FTP and NFS the files are ~/recup/FreeBSD/bin/??? I have set the the release name to "none" the error message is : "the bin distribution is not available on the release media" (but IT IS) - I don't know what is wrong I must be missing something obvious ...
