I can download the ISO image and burn it in my Institute out here.

BTW, suppose I wan't to just download FreeBSD to my hard-disk, and then
install it from there, how can I do it ?  The ftp site has plenty of
directories and files in them - downloading them all would take me ages.
Is there any way that you could suggest as to how I might go abt doing it.
