FreeBSD does not run under Windows. It is a separate operating system. Just as you can't run Windows 3.11 under Windows 95, you can't run FreeBSD under Windows 95. For information on FreeBSD you should see its Web site <http://www.freebsd.org/>. You will notice a link to installation instructions on the page. > 2) Do you have one or more FTP sites that contains ALL the CD on the > FTP but on ZIP or something else? because I can't order (my father > is don't giving me and I want to download it but is is hard because > there are a lot of files in there. if there are not any compressed > files then Maybe you can made on your FTP because I am sure that > there are a lot of people that need this one file to download, How > can I download this FreeBSD with all this files? Yes, you can download FreeBSD via FTP. When I first downloaded it, I was using Windows 95 and did exactly what you'll need to do. You should go to the Web site, follow the link to the installation instructions and have a good read of them. If you do download FreeBSD via FTP, you will find that the files are compressed into .tar.gz files, which are as common on Unix as .zip files are on Windows. Although they are compressed, you probably won't want to download the whole operating system. Again, there is plenty of information on the Web site which will help you out with this.
