It is. That file is no longer made available. It can be found inside
install42.iso, of course, but we have enough people not follow the
instructions and blasting the FTP sites that I am glad we don't make
it available.

Let me say it again:

When you see all these files...

    INSTALL.i386 bsd.rd* etc42.tgz install42.iso xfont42.tgz
    INSTALL.linux cd42.iso floppy42.fs man42.tgz xserv42.tgz
    MD5 cdboot* floppyB42.fs misc42.tgz xshare42.tgz
    base42.tgz cdbr* floppyC42.fs pxeboot*
    bsd* cdemu42.iso game42.tgz xbase42.tgz
    bsd.mp* comp42.tgz index.txt xetc42.tgz

Either get:

    INSTALL.i386 install42.iso
    INSTALL.linux
    MD5

or

INSTALL.i386 bsd.rd* etc42.tgz xfont42.tgz
INSTALL.linux cd42.iso floppy42.fs man42.tgz xserv42.tgz
MD5 cdboot* floppyB42.fs misc42.tgz xshare42.tgz
base42.tgz cdbr* floppyC42.fs pxeboot*
bsd* cdemu42.iso game42.tgz xbase42.tgz
bsd.mp* comp42.tgz index.txt xetc42.tgz

install42.iso contains all those other files, right inside it..

No need to download everything twice, see?
