You can copy the downloaded image to removable media, such as a USB
drive or burn it to a DVD. USB images require the usbcopy utility to
copy the bootable ISO image to a USB flash drive. In this release, USB
installation media is also available for SPARC platforms. To use the
usbcopy utility, first install the pkg:/install/distribution-constructor
package.

memstick.img: This file contains all of the files needed to install
FreeBSD, its source, and the Ports Collection. It should be burned to a
USB stick using the instructions below.

-mini-memstick.img: Like -bootonly.iso, does not include installation
files, but downloads them as needed. A working internet connection is
required during installation. Write this file to a USB stick as shown in
Section 2.3.1.1, “Writing an Image File to USB”.

After downloading the image file, download CHECKSUM.SHA256 from the same
directory. Calculate a checksum for the image file. FreeBSD provides
sha256(1) for this, used as sha256 imagefilename. Other operating
systems have similar programs.
