I do not expect this to be resolved anytime soon, and certainly not before 10.2-RELEASE. Instructions on using the on-disc packages for installation were included in the 10.1-RELEASE announcement email, and will be included in the 10.2-RELEASE email as well. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
