installing freebsd without having to burn a cd?


good day, im trying to install freebsd (im a linux user atm) but I'll have to entirely rely on my hd cause my cd-burner is dead... i now i have another option left, ie using a few floppy disks to boot up a kernel and a basic installer, but i was wondering how i could go about booting the whole thing off my HD... i got the bootonly.iso and copied the content over to a fat partition and set grub to boot the bsd loader, but it can't seem to find the kernel... what am i doing wrong? any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance
