Hi All, I downloaded the 4.6 release CDs from the FreeBSD FTP site. (The .iso files) I xfered these files to a Windows box (the only one which has a CD-RW drive) and tried burning the 4.6-disc1.iso file using Easy CD Creator - I used the ISO 9660 option. I began the FreeBSD installation on an old box which noone was using. The BIOS for this box doesn't allow for a bootable CD. So, I used the 2 floppy method to configure and get it upto sysinstall. However, when I choose the CD option and begin the installation, the Installer doesn't recognize the CD. I was wondering if anybody's tried doing what I am attempting here. If so, where did I go wrong? 1. Do I have to view the .iso file's contents through vnconfig and copy them onto a CD? 2. Do I HAVE to use RockRidge format - EasyCDCreator doesn't have that option. So, which PC-based CD Writing software can I use? Thanks for your assistance.
