The subject says it all: does anybody know if it is
possible to install FreeBSD on a laptop connected with
a parallel cable to a desktop (running Win95) with CD?

Or do I have to copy all files to a DOS-partition first 
and install FreeBSD from there?

Sorry if this is a FAQ (I looked but didn't find it).
