Hi.
I intend to install NetBSD onto my laptop, and I have a few questions ...

a) Is it even possible to install onto a laptop (specialized hardware, etc.
etc.)?
b) Does a unix environment need to be installed before NetBSD goes on (eg,
linux, etc.)
c) There is no method of transport that I know of for files. I have
downloaded the files from the FTP (/netbsd-1.6-release/tar/src...) and
extracted them to a folder on my desktop computer, however: my laptop has no
network port, has a disk drive, but no cd-rom.

Thanks for your time.
