Depends on just how you plan to do your installation. If you plan to install just from CD and not over the internet, then you need disc1-3 (maybe) The basic install is just disc1, but the other two have the rest of the ports you may wany. If you don't need the ports you don't need disc2 and 3. But, I normally install over the net. For that you can get by with either bootonly or disc1 and you don't need the others. They have just revised the cd content for FreeBSD 7.x so there are some differences, but the pattern is the same. ////jerry > > Zeeshan > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
