From where can one ftp version 2.0.5 of FreeBSD?  I'm trying to get
FreeBSD running on a Hewitt-Rand IBM type PC, with 4MB of memory, and
I get a "Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode" error message
when trying to boot version 2.1.0.  After looking at the FAQ, it
appears that I'll need to start with 2.0.5 and then install 2.1.0 as
an alternative to adding more memory.

Thanks very much in advance for any information that anyone can
provide about this.
