Hi William,

Look here --> ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ISO-IMAGES-amd64/7.0

That is where I obtained the ISO's from.

Regards,

Terry

I can't seem to find the "distributions" listed in
the Subject: line on any of the 7.0-RELEASE ISO images.

What am I missing?

I know the 7.0-RELEASE announcement says the "bootable"
ISO can be used along with FTP to finish the install, but
I can't get FTP (or passive FTP, for that matter) to work
as it has in the past.  I am behind a m0n0wall firewall,
but I believe I have used passive FTP in the past to get
around that problem.  I even opened up the firewall with
a "pass all" rule, but it still didn't work.  It looked
like it could not resolve ftp.freebsd.org or ftp9.freebsd.org
since it hung there "trying to connect with..." until it
gave up.  I tried several different (known good) DNS server
IP addresses, but nothing worked.

Then I went looking for the distributions in the ISO
images.  Not finding them there either has really had
a negative impact on my install today, sigh...   :-(

Regards,

web...
