Description Tur-Wei Chan 2001-10-26 07:20:00 UTC

The README.TXT in the floppies directory of the i386 releases on the FreeBSD ftp sites do not give description of how or what to do with the floppy images.  Instead, the file seems to be the 4.4-R main README.TXT.

In comparison, the 4.3-RELEASE/floppies/README.TXT shows the right stuff.

How-To-Repeat: ftp ftp.freebsd.org
cd /pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.4-RELEASE
get README.TXT -
Gasp in exasperation for the missing clues on how to dd the images to floppy to the floppy drive.

State Changed
From-To: open->closed

floppies/README.TXT should have had the text from INSTALL.TXT instead. 
This problem has been fixed for 4.4-STABLE; 4.5-RELEASE will have the 
correct content in this file.
