Hey I'm take a look at these today. Can you batch them into larger
submissions? At least all the nits in one chapter going into one bug,
if not all the nits found in one day going together into one bug.

The handbook unequivocially decrees that the project makes available two CDROM images as part of each release. This isn't really true, though -- for one thing, there are N images <em>per architecture</em>. Additionally, we have a miniinst.iso as well as disc1 and disc2. Ken Smith recently noted that the amd64 monthly snapshots have been overflowing disc1 (without packages), so I don't know if that will push out a disc 3 as well. Fix: - <para>As part of each release, the FreeBSD project makes available two - CDROM images (<quote>ISO images</quote>). These images can be written + <para>As part of each release, the FreeBSD project makes available + at least two CDROM images (<quote>ISO images</quote>) per + supported architecture. These images can be written (<quote>burned</quote>) to CDs if you have a CD writer, and then used to install FreeBSD. If you have a CD writer, and bandwidth is cheap, then this is the easiest way to install FreeBSD.</para>--kf0IKYCgS2MYlWozym4Dfa00qQ0VVKDY3KpWyzNxn6XlciuV Content-Type: text/plain; name="file.diff" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="file.diff" --- chapter.sgml.orig Sat Jun 30 17:15:48 2007 +++ chapter.sgml Sat Jun 30 17:23:11 2007 @@ -4212,8 +4236,9 @@ <sect2 id="install-cdrom"> <title>Creating an Installation CDROM</title> How-To-Repeat: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-diff-media.html
