Dear friends:
<p>By connecting to one of the FTP servers, I copied all files in 'bin'
and 'manpages' into my system with the same directory name.Everything goes
well until the time that the installation
<br>program should read files from c:\freebsd\bin and install them into
unix partition, but I get this
<br>message: <b>Couldn't extract the following distributions. This may
be because they were not available on&nbsp; the installation media you've
chosen:&nbsp; BIN.</b>
<br>By the way, I tried to find setup.exe in FTP server, but it seems that
it doesn't exist.
<br>I would highly appreciate it if you could help me install FreeBSD in
my system.
<p>sincerely,
<br>Mahmoud</html>
