Hello. I'm going to make freebsd live usb based on FreeBSD-8.3-RELEASE-i386-livefs.iso. The iso is 257 Megabytes, but after i copy its content to usb drive its volume increases to 971 Megabytes. I tried different methods of copying (tar,cp,cpio) but with the same result. Could anyone help?

FPGA_LOAD(8)															      FPGA_LOAD(8)

NAME
fpga_load - Xorcom Astribank (xpp) firmware tool SYNOPSIS
fpga_load [-g] [-r] [-v] -D {/proc/bus/usb|/dev/bus/usb}/BUS/DEV fpga_load [-g] [-v] -D {/proc/bus/usb|/dev/bus/usb}/BUS/DEV -I firmware.hex [-b dump.bin] [-i] fpga_load -h DESCRIPTION
fpga_load loads the FPGA firmware to the Xorcom Astribank device. The syntax resembles that of fxload(8). OPTIONS
-b dump.bin Before writing firmware, bump the processed binary file to dump.bin. -D DEVICE Required. The device to read from/write to. On modern UDEV-based system this is usually /dev/bus/usb/bus_num/device_num, where bus_num and device_num are the first two numbers in the output of lsusb(8). On older systems that use usbfs, it is usually /proc/bus/usb/bus_num/device_num. -r Reset the Astribank and renumerate its USB connection to power on product ID. -g Dump all eeprom data to standard output. -I fireware_file The firmware file to write to the device. -i Show information about the firmware file (valid only with -I option). Example: ./FPGA_1151.hex: Version=3297 Checksum=58270 In particular, the calculated checksum should match the output of sum(1) on the binary firmware file generated by the -b option. -v Increase verbosity. May be used multiple times. -h Displays usage message. SEE ALSO
