The *.flp files are byte-for-byte images of the floppy, not files you should place on a floppy. If you want to create FreeBSD install-floppies from DOS or Windows you need the "fdimage.exe" utility. You can find it on a FreeBSD ftp server in the "tools" directory. For details on how to use "fdimage" see (section 1.3) : http://www.freebsd.org/relnotes/6-STABLE/installation/i386/index.html > 2) I'm using a IBM Thinkpad 600e 400mHz without much sucess. > Will FreeBSD install on this machine? It should. I run FreeBSD on much older systems.
