Hello. I wanted to try freeBSD. I have a laptop using W95 to get the sw over the net, an iomega zip 100MB to move stuff with and a target system - a junk 486 with 32 MB ram. In any case, I can't ftp from my target system, so I'd like to know what files I need to do the install. The boot disk boot.flp boots and I partition a 300MB after the DOS partition. - Novice user, binaries and doc install. I get lost, tho, when it expects the other files from CDROM/DOS/FTP to do this installation. The kernel isn't found. Can I place the freeBSD distribution files on the DOS partition and install from there? Does freeBSD support a printer-port iomega zip drives ? .. probably. I'd appreciated any assistance you can give me. Thank you. --krb
