Yes, Ofcource you can get CD's from Mr.Tariq Farooqi but each CD will @ Cost of Rs.30 and i think FreeBSD 5.1 have 5 CD's 30x5=150 + Courier Charges.....

if you can't get freebsd 5.1, install something older (4.x) and use cvsup to upgrade. i did that on one box at home -- from 4.4 to 5-current.

upgrading via cvsup generally works properly. on my old box, i upgraded from 3.3 to 4.7, and never ran into any problems.

just make sure you read /usr/src/UPDATING.

We do not have FreeBSD 5.1 now and short of miracle I would not hold my breath for getting it in few days. Your best bet is what Lambda suggested and I would also second that.

If you need ver listed at Wiki send me your complete street address along with phone number [ Courier will need that - they will charge Rs.35.00, any where in Pakistan ] at the address or of any person who can guide Courier in case he has problem finding location. Phone contact number is must.

What ID you used to send message to cd@linux.net.pk ? I do not have any thing un-acknowledged, still I will re-check when I receive your message. You can mail me using the address at these forums in my profile.

I am not looking for money but incase you can offer $ 85.00 then I can get it for you in four days time :) [ This is what I will have to spend on getting it from USA in case you are wondering :) ].

If you have this kind of money spend it on buying a PII box, get CD from us and upgrade with the help of Lambda and you will still have some change left, your call :)
