I have looked at the install doc, and I don't think this is covered.
I have an older Intel box that is unable to boot the 5.x CDs, and is
unable to create CDs from images anyway.
I am also unable to create floppies, nor do I have enough space to
build from source.
I do have 4.9 installed and running, and it has full network access
to a Mac (OS X), which has dialup to the outside world.
Is there a way to download any format of the latest stable FreeBSD
to the Mac, and from there, via NFS or FTP, upgrade? I do have two
disks on Intel, so if necessary, I can boot one in order to install
on the other.
Or if I can get someone to make me a CD, can I install from it without
booting from it?
Wesley,
You can download the floppy(s) images from the freebsd site just follow
the links from the handbook - you need to write the image in raw mode.
You can then load from the CD.
