HELP! I have been installing and running FreeBSD since 2.2.6, but have always installed from floppy-boot->CDROM or FTP, or bootable-CDROM. I am trying to install FreeBSD 4.0 RELEASE from Walnut Creek Disk 1. I have a laptop with 2 bays - 1 HDD, and one of FDD/HDD/CDROM! I would like to install from CDROM using the install.bat utility to run from DOS. The 4.0 CD does not contain install.bat, nor do the 3.2 or 3.4! I have found an install.bat on a 3.1 CD and all it does is run "fbsdboot.exe -D kernel" There is a fbsdboot.exe in \tools of 4.0, but I cannot get it to run. I don't know what kernel to use or where to put it! I have tried to use the \kernel on the CD, but am told that it is "Invalid format" Please could someone help, as I don't particullarly want to create the \bin floppies!! Thanks in advance, Anthony.
