Isn't that rather old now? If so, you'd still need to ftp a fair bit to
bring it up to date.
PlingBoot are meant to do a CD-ROM, but they seem to be rather slow judging
messages on this list. Anyway, their contact details are on the riscbsd web
pages somewhere.

It's not really the place for basic generic Unix questions -- it's meant to
be a list for discussions particular to the arm32 port of netbsd. If you
don't have much Unix experience, you probably want to get a book or two.
There are a number recommended in the mailing list archive. Try searching
for 'unix books' on:
http://noxious.muscat.co.uk/riscbsd/
You might also find this index useful for answering other questions.
Cheers,
