-You can install from the following types of media:
-
- CDROM requires one of the following supported CDROM drives:
- ATAPI - Any standard ATAPI CDROM drive hooked to
- a supported controller (see Hardware Guide).
- SCSI - Any standard SCSI CDROM drive hooked to
- a supported controller (see Hardware Guide).
-
-
- DOS A DOS primary partition with the required FreeBSD
- distribution files copied onto it (e.g. C:\FREEBSD\)
-
-
- FS Assuming a disk or partition with an existing
- FreeBSD file system and distribution set on it,
- get the distribution files from there.
-
-
- Floppy Get distribution files from one or more DOS or UFS
- formatted floppies. Such floppies are assumed to
- contain the appropriate distribution pieces - see
- ABOUT.TXT for more information about making floppy
- distribution media.
-
-
- FTP Get the distribution files from an anonymous ftp server
- (you will be presented with a list). Please note that
- you may invoke FTP in "Active" mode, "Passive" mode, or
- via an HTTP proxy.
-
- Active mode is the standard way of fetching files and
- Passive mode is for use when you're behind a firewall or
- some other security mechanism that blocks active FTP
- connections. Using an HTTP proxy is sometimes necessary
- for firewalls which block all FTP connections.
-
- If you chose to enter your own URL in the FTP menu, please
- note that all paths are *relative* to the home directory
- of the user being logged in as. By default, this is the
- user "ftp" (anonymous ftp) but you may change this in the
- Options screen.
-
-
- NFS Get the distribution files from an NFS server somewhere
- (make sure that permissions on the server allow this!).
- If this install method hangs on you or refuses to work
- properly, you may need to set some special options for
- your NFS server. See the Options screen for more details.
-
-
- Tape Extract distribution files from tape into a temporary
- directory and install from there. If the tape was created
- with blocksize other than 20, you may wish to change this
- in the Options screen.
