Dear Sir or Ma'am:
I have tried to search Google and that, but probably am not using the
right conglomerate of keywords to find what I want to know, so I am resigned
to asking you.
I recently noticed that there are quite a number of DVDs and CD-ROMs out
for FreeBSD, and I'd like to give it a try. So I downloaded the amd64-all
torrent, but I fear I likely have more ISOs than I need.
Does the "dvd1" include the contents of the docs?
What are all the other ISOs?
I saw no documentation on the freebsd.org site descriptive what I am
asking.
7.1-RELEASE-amd64-bootonly.iso
This is only a very minimalistic Operating System/Installation
CD, nearly everything has to be downloaded from the internet.
You should know what you do, when you use this.
7.1-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso
7.1-RELEASE-amd64-disc2.iso
7.1-RELEASE-amd64-disc3.iso
7.1-RELEASE-amd64-docs.iso
These are the release CD's. You will need at least disc1. The
others contain collections of useful software and information.
7.1-RELEASE-amd64-dvd1.iso
Contains the stuff of the four CD's
7.1-RELEASE-amd64-livefs.iso
A live-file-system, i.e. you can run the OS from CD without
installing it to your harddisk - not very complete, but nice for
testing.
Thanks in advance, and have a blessed day.
Greetings
Uli.
