After looking
through archives to determine what to do, I can across nanoBSD as that
seems to be included in the FreeBSD system by default, henceforth this
question. I couldn't find any information regarding the smallest image
size possible using NanoBSD. So the question is: can nanoBSD fw/ the
proper configurations fit onto a floppy disk...and if not, is such an
old computer bootable off of a usb stick? How can I tell without buying
one?
I think that it will be quite hard to make it running from floppy. If you don't
want to install it on this HD (f.ex. because of noise) then you can replace
HDD with Disk-On-Module or CF card with CF-IDE adapter.
With booting from usb on such rather old computers I had so many problems that
I went for other options like these mentioned above.
