I have successfully installed FreeBSD (boot system) only in the HD.
I wish to know how to create the 4th diskette (all those tools, like
kermit, sz, rz, mcopy, mdir, mdel).  Can anyone tell me?

I wish to install bindarydist but found that the filenames are so
long
	bin.tar.gz.aa ...
How do I copy to a MSDOS floppy?  MSDOS only allows 8+3 char.
I also heard that ld_fd dose not work.  So, is there any other solution.
P.S.  My 486 is not networked, no 386BSD is installed.

Thank you in advance.
