FreeBSD install via FTP ?

**Compunuts** · 03-19-2002, 10:19 PM

Can this be done?? I hate to download all the ISO and stuff ( and I currently don't have burner working ). So If you know a place I can download a start up disk and get the rest from FTP or HTTP.

I've looked in ftp://ftp2.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ but can't seem to find an installation floppy image.

TIA

If you can, try OpenBSD on another box too.

I just finished installing FreeBSD of ftp. It was very easy to do. I have CD's on the way so I can do some real damage.

I've installed FreeBSD by CD and FTP. If you're doing it by FTP, you want a fast connection and minimal install. You can add packages later to suit your tastes.
