I have installed windows2000 on my computer,I make two boot flopy 
 disks,and copy the files needed for the installation of the freebsd OS to 
 c:\freebsd.but in the process of installation,the system pop up a 
 error:error mounting dev/ad0s1 on /dist: no such file or directory.

From where exactly did you try to install FreeBSD? From a windows 2000
partition? I am afraid, but that won't work, even with boot floppies.

You have two options: Either get a cdrom and install from there, or do a
network installation via ftp. More information is found here:
