If you burn the ISO image onto a CD-R, you should be able to boot off
that if you're computer's new enough. If you want boot floppies,
point an FTP client at ftp.freebsd.org, and get
/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.2-RELEASE/floppies/{kern,mfsroot}.flp
You can download and use
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/tools/rawrite.exe
to write the images to floppies on DOS, or use dd(1) on Unix.
