For base system installation you have to download disk1 which now (starting with the 5.4-RELEASE) includes the fixit-CD. If you want to do a very lean installation over the network (ftp, http, NFS or AFS) you can download the boot-only iso. That's just for booting the FreeBSD installation routine, every tarball has to be downloaded vi network (or copied from another filesystem within the installer). Formerly there was a mini-inst.iso which was only the installer with the base system without any packages, I haven't investigated the new layout, so I guess that disc one has the fixit (live filesystem) and some packages in addition to the mini-inst.iso -Mano > Thanks for your patience and for reading this. > > Ricardo, > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
