Re: floppy install problems with strange message
yes this are made fresh from the fbsd ftp server. i've also checked the distribution set in options and it is set correct (5.4-RELEASE). the handbook only mentioned setting the Release name as far as cvsup is concerned. i found warning messages from tty2 though: DEBUG: Generating /etc/fstab file DEBUG: Warning: Zero length name or value passed to variable_set2(httpFtpMode) the last one appeared six times in a row.

floppy install problems with strange message
hello, i'm trying a floppy install of the 5.4-RELEASE and whatever ftp site i choose i would get the following message: No such directory: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/5.4-RELEASE please check the URL and try again. i know the snapshot directory doesn't exist (if i ftp directly to the server) so how come this would come for the floppy install? -- Take back the web! getfirefox.com Subtle and insubstantial, the expert leaves no trace; divinely mysterious, he is inaudible.
