First can someone tell me what I should get in the way of packages?

Second, I know I rawrite the boot/root disks, but do I put the packages 
on an MS-DOS floppy (like you would with Linux), looking for a good 
installation faq.

And linux fails to load it's kernal, would FreeBSD load? (Linux is 
incompatable with my floppy controler)

Please E-Mail me.
