since you were to able download that much file size, i agree with pete the best way to install is via the .iso files, i dunno why is that the FreeBSD files you downloaded amounted to that much space that's odd, when i downloaded the iso's before, it only consists of iso's so that equals 2 cd. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
