But not OpenBSD! I don't like how they don't provide ISO images as an excuse to make people buy their CDs. buying cds helps the project by providing funds to buy hardware, hold hackathons, and pay for other project expenses (including the openssh project). you get printed installation instructions, all of the pre-compiled packages, and stickers. cds can be pre-ordered and received days or weeks before the ftp release. however, we do make iso images of the installation sets available on the ftp servers (installXX.iso) and have for quite some time. alternatively, you can download cdXX.iso which is just the installer, then boot to it and let it fetch and install just the sets you want over ftp or http. or download bsd.rd and pxe network boot it. or download floppyXX.fs and make a floppy disk.
