So after having setup the network configuration during the install prompts, it asked me to enter the FTP server IP address and I gave it the IP address of the hmc. Note, I have enabled FTP access to mass storage media.
So now it's asking me for the directory on the server. Do I just hit enter and let him locate it or is it not that smart and would need to provide the directory on the DVD?
