I've downloaded the file
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.0-ALPHA/floppies/newer/boot.flp.
The file seems to be too big to fit on a 1.44mb floppy ( I get error messages
when I try, and the floppy won't boot )  Am I missing something here?
When I downloaded the original boot.flp it wouldn't recognize my Adaptec
2842 SCSI controller.

TIA,
