How can I go > about getting a copy to load on my PC at home? If you have an Internet connection with a SLIP link, you can simply search the next server that has the FreeBSD files on it. Look into the "2.0-RELEASE" directory on that server and download and read the "INSTALL", "RELNOTES" and "README" documents. These should explain how you can proceed and what you need to be doing to use FreeBSD. If you are not internet connected, try to get the documents also over ftpmail for some other mechanism( internet connected friend) and read them and if you like it and have a CDROM, buy one of the CDROM's that contain FreeBSD. There are several's out that has them. Otherwise you need to get many floppies and load it on floppies and transport them to your home and load it with floppies.
