I can't say I have performed a successful install since I haven't managed to actually boot the disk yet, but I have been able to make progress beyond where things went wrong before. The difference was that I used the main ftp site ftp.freebsd.org whereas I tried ftp1.freebsd.org previously. So, it's possible that there's something up with that copy of the 5.2RC. Thanks, -Clint
