hi,

can anybody please help me out.first of all i wanted to install via FTP but now i have changed my mind to install from a msdos partition.so i have made a "freebsd" directory and downloaded /bin,/compat*,/dict,/floppies,/manpages,/ports,/proflibs.will this be enough (though i know many from here r irelevent,but i downloaded because they were small downloads).and when i was tring to install from a FTP though a HTTP proxy ,after i did the partition and give ok to start the installation it says "cannot create /dev/x on /dev!" and aborting installation etc etc.can u guess what the problem is .if so please let me know as soon as possible.
