installing 5.2 for AMD 64

2004-02-10 Thread Pete Molina
good day..   i guess this is a stupid question...   i have been using freebsd  
5.1... and im just getting into the AMD64 chips..  i noticed that the AMD64 
versions of 5.1 or 5.2 only have the boot only ISO..  the disk2 ISO and the 
mininst ISO..  my question is how do you install the 64 bit version..? 5.1 
and 5.2 for 386 has a disk1 which i use to boot and start the install..  but 
for the life of me i can;t figure out how to get the 64bit versions 
installed..

thanks for any help anyone can offer

As far as I know, there are no packages yet built for amd64, so
the only install disc is the miniinst one, which is essentially
what you would normally get, but without packages. This one is
the one to use.
