my worry is:
i want to install freebsd on a notebook.this one is a sony
VAI0) and it doesn't have either a CD driver or a floppy
driver.

so i can't either boot from a Freebsd CD or installation
floppies.

but since it has a modem and a PCMCIA card i still can get a
connection to our network and therefore to the internet.

how do i start installtion without bootable CD/floppies ?

thanx
