Hi, I was browsing the old-releases ISO directory of FreeBSD at:

ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/old-releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES

looking for FreeBSD 4.2 in order to test something I have not worked on 
for a long time.

I indeed found what I was looking for. However, there seems to be two 
possible version for FreeBSD 4.2.

One is simply FreeBSD 4.2 and the other is FreeBSD 4.2-Release

FreeBSD 4.3 directory contains only on install iso while FreeBSD 
4.2-Release contains two cd iso.

I am a little confused with this "duplication". Is there any difference 
between these two versions of 4.2 ?

Thanks a lot and have a great week end!
