<h2>Availability</h2>
<p>FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE is now available for the amd64, i386, pc98,
and sparc64 architectures.</p>
<p>FreeBSD 8.3 can be installed from bootable ISO images or over the
network. Some architectures (currently amd64 and i386) also
support installing from a USB memory stick. The required files
can be downloaded via FTP or BitTorrent as described in the
sections below. While some of the smaller FTP mirrors may not
carry all architectures, they will all generally contain the more
common ones such as amd64 and i386.</p>
<p>MD5 and SHA256 hashes for the release ISO images are included at
the bottom of this message.</p>
<p>The purpose of the images provided as part of the release are as
follows:</p>
<dl>
<dt>dvd1</dt>
<dd><p>This contains everything necessary to install the base
FreeBSD operating system, a collection of pre-built packages,
and the documentation. It also supports booting into a
"livefs" based rescue mode. This should be all you need if
you can burn and use DVD-sized media.</p></dd>
<dt>disc1</dt>
<dd><p>This contains the base FreeBSD operating system and the
English documentation package for CDROM-sized media. There
are no other packages.</p></dd>
<dt>livefs</dt>
<dd><p>This contains support for booting into a "livefs" based
rescue mode but does not support doing an install from the CD
itself. It is meant to help rescue an existing system but
could be used to do a network based install if
necessary.</p></dd>
<dt>bootonly</dt>
<dd><p>This supports booting a machine using the CDROM drive but
does not contain the support for installing FreeBSD from the
CD itself. You would need to perform a network based install
(e.g. from an FTP server) after booting from the CD.</p></dd>
<dt>memstick</dt>
<dd><p>This can be written to an USB memory stick (flash drive)
and used to do an install on machines capable of booting off
USB drives. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based
rescue mode. The documentation packages are provided but no
other packages.</p>
<p>As one example of how to use the memstick image, assuming the
USB drive appears as /dev/da0 on your machine something like this
should work:</p>
<pre># dd if=FreeBSD-8.3-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img of=/dev/da0 bs=10240 conv=sync</pre>
<p>Be careful to make sure you get the target (of=) correct.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE can also be purchased on CD-ROM or DVD from
several vendors. One of the vendors that will be offering FreeBSD
8.3-based products is:</p>
