I haven't done this but a lot of people use the FTP install. I've
always used the CDROM. There is an iso on
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/ for
4.1-release that you can burn as an image to a CDR. Otherwise, you
have all of those little files to download. If you use ftp, specify
binary, turn off the prompt, and do an "mget *" it doesn't take too
long.

Since it is only 2128, your computer's clock must be advanced an hour.
