Some architectures also support installing from + a USB memory stick. The required files can be downloaded via + FTP as described in the section below.

You would need to perform a network based install + (e.g. from an FTP server) after booting from the CD.</p></dd> + + <dt>memstick</dt> + + <dd><p>This can be written to an USB memory stick (flash drive) + and used to do an install on machines capable of booting off + USB drives. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based + rescue mode. There are no pre-built packages.</p> + + <p>As one example of how to use the memstick image, assuming + the USB drive appears as /dev/da0 on your machine something + like this should work:</p> + + <pre># dd if=FreeBSD-9.2-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img of=/dev/da0 bs=10240 conv=sync</pre> + + <p>Be careful to make sure you get the target (of=) + correct.</p></dd> + </dl> + + <p>FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE can also be purchased on CD-ROM or DVD from + several vendors.
