Re: where are base, info, kernels, dict, doc, games, manpages, ports, src, etc. for 7.0-REL?
are you using 7.0-RELEASE--bootonly.iso or 7.0-RELEASE--Disc1.iso the later has the files on it and can be installed without any network connection at all. -Sean -- From: William Bulley [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 05, 2008 4:42 PM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: where are base, info, kernels, dict, doc, games, manpages, ports,src, etc. for 7.0-REL?

According to Sean Cavanaugh [EMAIL PROTECTED]: are you using 7.0-RELEASE--bootonly.iso or 7.0-RELEASE--Disc1.iso the later has the files on it and can be installed without any network connection at all. Thanks. I have 7.0-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso and burned it onto a CD-ROM, but that didn't seem to work either. I will try it again... It is curious why the contents of the ISOs is not listed somewhere. The only way I could find to inspect them was: # mdconfig -a -t vnode -f whatever.iso -u 0 # mount -t cd9660 /dev/md0 /mnt which is from section 18.6.2 of the Handbook.

Hi William, Look here -- ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ISO-IMAGES-amd64/7.0 That is where I obtained the ISO's from.
