and specifically:

http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/rawwrite.htm

these are all windows programs that take away the frustration
of installing linux. however freebsd and any os follows the same concept when it comes
to boot disks (.img) - so give rawwrite a try.

if you really want to do it "unix style" via dd he has a windows copy of dd on there:

Let me know if you need any help making the fixit disk via any of the utilities i just mentioned.

What resources do you have?
Don't have another FreeBSD machine at this location. I have my SuSE 9.2
linux workstation and Windows 2003 server machine.

2] Fixit CD or Fixit floppy.  Available via FTP
from ftp.freebsd.org.

I tried the Fixit CD (disc 2) and it says 'ldconfig could not create the
ld.so hints' and that my dynamic executables from the disc most likely
won't work. When I Alt+F4, typing any command such as 'ls' gives me a
segmentation fault. I am running 5.3 on a old AMD 500 with 512MB RAM.

Not sure how to get the images for floppies on to my floppy. The 'dd'
command does not seem to work in my linux env and I don't find the
fdimage.exe for Windows.

Appreciate any help.
