Why do the ISOs seem to be three CDs of 600Mb each for RedHat compared to 1.5 CDs for FreeBSD? I thought the files were larger with FreeBSD and its tarballs.
Does FreeBSD offer all the packages from A to Z in their CDs?
There are some packages which are only available through FTP. Some packages aren't included on CDs because 3 cds is a little excessive.
Does FreeBSD come with an installation package?
Is FreeBSD Linux or UNIX?
FreeBSD is a child of System V, so UNIX. Linux was written from scratch by Linus with the GNU Public License, as opposed to FreeBSD which originated from BSD, which originated from System V.

Actually no, FreeBSD is a child of 4.4BSD Lite 2, which had all the AT&T SYSV stuff yanked out.
