Description Sven Storgards 2004-01-28 08:10:14 UTC
The boot floppy image ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/5.2-RELEASE/floppies/boot.flp is 2.8Mb.
This means that FreeBSD cannot be used on hardware which can only boot from a 1.4Mb floppy devices.
Please change the booting architecture so that only 1.4Mb floppies can be used.
