I am a newby to freeBSD. I am attempting to install on a hd partion. I work through the install process fine. I used ftp as the install mediun. At 90% complete transfer something happened to the connection. My questions are: does the whole tranfer have to be repeated? what should the ftp setting be in options on the boot floppy? assuming the install be be finished with what came through (X-user choice), in the media choice filesystem install what path should be used to finish? (/stand/sysinstall/ was tried) is this a good place to ask questions? If not please direct this or me to the appropriate area. Thank you for any help. Mike
