RE: Is there a HOW-TO for a network install of FreeBSD?
You can try installing a minimum system to a system similar to the one at the colo, then dd the partition from linux and copy over and dd back to the disk and configure lilo/grub, and check. Try it on a test environment first, if you have. Mike > > Hi- > > I have a server that currently has Redhat 7.3 on it, and I want to wipe > the > box and do a fresh install of FreeBSD 4.9.

Is there a HOW-TO for a network install of FreeBSD?
Hi- I have a server that currently has Redhat 7.3 on it, and I want to wipe the box and do a fresh install of FreeBSD 4.9. The only problem is that the box is at a colo and only has a floppy drive. But I have root access to it over the network. Is there a way for me to install a new FreeBSD OS over the network (remotely)? Can anyone assist?
