I've installed yesterday's snapshot just a few minutes ago (it was
supposed to be under 2.2.7, but since the 3.0 beta is available now I
figured it would be nice if I could help with some testing).

There are a few problems with sysinstall being not quite up to date
with the available distributions:

	- the "proflibs" distribution is in the distribution list
	  but doesn't seem to exist anymore.
	- when doing a Custom install, the XFree package installation
	  is never selected unless you choose to install "All" of
	  XFree, then deselect the packages you don't want.
	- some of the XFree distribution files don't seem to be
	  properly installed. For example, X3323bin.tgz. Apparently
	  this is a file name problem (sysinstall seems to want
	  X332bin.tgz). There are others: at least X3323prog.tgz,
	  X3323nest.tgz, X3323lkit.tgz, X3323lib.tgz...

Other than that, the installation procedure is very easy and smooth
when you are used to installing 2.2.x. Great job !
