Date: 16 Jul 1997 23:18:17 GMT Organization: North Carolina State University Lines: 11 Message-ID: <5qjkrp$ol@uni00nw.unity.ncsu.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: cc05du.unity.ncsu.edu Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:44560 Second query...... Has anyone ever gotten a floppy install of FreeBSD to work? I would like to try a minimal install to build a troff/tex writing box, but my one try at a floppy install did not work correctly. Many ftp installs have worked just fine. I have not tried cdrom installs, but I don't have a cdrom on the box in question. Comments/suggestions/other experiences or war stories appreciated. Thanks Bob Keys
