First, thanks for all the people who took the time and effort to
make this happen :)

I just finished downloading the images thru torrents. I burned both
i386 disc one and two then installed 5.4. Everything worked fine as
usual.


CD1 is the installation CD.  This includes about 400 MB of
pre-compiled packages that can be installed.

CD2 is a LiveCD mainly meant for rescue situations via sysinstall's
"Fixit" feature.



Not Any more. Now Install/LiveCD/Rescue is done by disc1, which include also the packages needed by sysinstall.


disc2 is a collection of aditional packages that, at last in the i386 case, include the full gnome/kde ports (Not lite).

I know I do not have any problems with the new disc layout. All I am saying was:
1- I installed the FreeBSD 5.4 i386 on the system without any problems.
2- After I finished installing. I decided to install other packages so I ran sysinstall
3- when I ran sysinstall disc2 was inserted (it was just there)
4- I chose the new packages to install like expat, apache, portupgrade, portsnap, etc.
5- sysinstall installed the packages from disc2 then showed a msg that expat is located on disc1 and requested disc1
6- I inserted disc1 to fulfill the request and it installed the packages.
7- an error msg showed up saying that apache cannot be found on the media and it failed to install.


I know that apache is on disc2. All I was saying that sysinstall should have asked for disc2 to be inserted like it did for disc1.
All I did to fix this (obviously) I ran sysinstall again with disc2 inserted and it installed it.
So, should this be considered a bug in sysinstall because it didnt ask for the disc even tho it should have known that it is located on disc2.
