Buying a FreeBSD CD Set?

L1011 · 11-01-2003 11:25am #1

Does anywhere here (= geographic shop, not a website) sell boxed distros of FreeBSD? If so how much?

micromail in Cork will let you have FreeBSD 4.7 for a touch less than €55

OK, had not expected it to be that expensive.... i'm not buying it anyway, a friend is.... i'll let him know

Find someone with bandwidth and a burner. Odds are one or more of these nice people from ILUG would be happy to help out.

aye, i'm on that list. Give me the url for the disks you want and I can download them. Then all you have to do, is come visit with blank cd's and some chocolate

I know you didnt want a website but this is prob the best idea to get any linux distro £2Stg/CD+postage.

Your best bet is to try someone on the Linux.ie CD burners page as posted by Longword above.

Yeah umm... being on said list I'll download & burn off FreeBSD for you if you want.

In fact I think I have the 4.7 iso on my hard drive right now.
Postage & packaging if outside of Dublin
else
Your immortal soul.... I'm easy on the quid pro quo.

On that note quozl I'm looking for the latest copy of Slackware. I have blank cd's and I work in Butlers Chocolate Cafe. I can get free irish handmade chocolates for life.

I've PM'ed you about this Typedef. You can have the CD's+Postage or the soul, I'm not too bothered... CD's+postage would be easier to extract though....

Just noticed this, you're better off pm'ing me tbh. If you give me a url i'll start downloading them tomorrow if you want. My net connect is down today, but I assume it'll be back by tomorrow

As an aside. My girlfriend does like butlers chocolates
