Creating a DVD from the official FreeBSD CD isos (disc[1-3]) is quite straightforward. Take a look at the instructions on <http://www.pa.msu.edu/~tigner/bsddvd.html>. It describes creating a DVD from a 2 CD set but the process is the same for 3, just include an extra step to mount and copy disc3 in the same way as he describes disc2, then continue with the instructions for disc2 and disc1 in that order. -- Mike Clarke _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
