Smith & Mike Schwartz MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Date: 3 Dec 94 13:05:51 EST Organization: Auldhaefen Associates - changing the face of reality Lines: 14 I got in FreeBSD 2.0 via ftpmail and have been trying to create the boot floppy and have found a problem. The image is *larger* than the disk. The 1.44 meg floppy image is 1474560 in size. I don't have a 1.2 meg floppy drive but it would apear to be academic since the size lists at 1228800, larger than the disk. Any ideas on how to create the boot floppy or should I just extract the 2.0 binaries and source over top of the 1.1.5.1 ones that I am currently running.
