Hello... just a quick question...

For i386 we have

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/6.0-RELEASE/floppies/

but for Amd64 there's no ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/6.0-RELEASE/floppies/ 

How can I get installation floppies for 6.0 / amd64?

Thanks... 

There aren't any, because amd64 machines are "legacy free" systems,
meaning they don't come with floppy drives or parallel printer ports.
(They do come with serial ports, thankfully, probably because of
how useful they are for setting up headless servers.)


As a side note my amd64 board has floppy and parrallel port (which I use to program Atmels :))
