Hello,

I have an IBM X30 laptop without external CD or FDD - so I can't boot from CD or FDD. I have also no network access to another computer. I can just download the installation software form the FreeBSD web site. Is there a way to install FreeBSD in such situation? If it is absolutely impossible - can I boot from COMPACT FLASH (IBM X30 has COMPACT FLASH slot - I can put there also IBM 1 GB micro drive) or from a USB MEMORY KEY?

Thank you very much for your help!

Best regards,

Iavor
