Hello,

Now that I have 3.2-RELEASE installed and running, I thought I
might try something simple - installing the KDE package. A good test
for a UNIX newbie, right? (I'm sure my VAX/FORTRAN skills would
be useful, HAH). How has the following promise turned out?     (More
follows)

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=2712551+2714465+/usr/local/www/db/text/1999/freebsd-questions/19990607.freebsd-questions

I don't think so! I've tried two installs - one from /stand/sysinstall
and one from the boot floppy.

    Off of /stand/sysinstall-- I choose Configure, Configure Packages,
FTP.
                                         Running multi-user, assume that
the network
                                         is already configured, Choose
No
                                         Do the network config and
choose OK and get

                                         Cannot resolve hostname
ftp.freebsd.org

                                        and I can't get past this
problem even if my
                                        network config is correct.

  Off the boot floppies for 3.2-RELEASE

         I choose configure, configure packages, select my media,
        connect  and go and get

             Locating INDEX now reading package data from it

         I select KDE install
         I select only kdebase - 1.1.1  (kdelibs as a dependency)
         I click install and see

                 kdebase 1.1.1

          I click ok and get

                Adding packages /all/mesa-3.0.tgz (as a dependency)
                from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/freebsd/releases/i386

          and it locks up.

           Here's the DEBUG output:

Am I going to have to learn how to do package installs manually?

Thanks,   Bob Olbrich   rjob@gulftel.com

Resup; 3.2-R is just about out the door and sysinstall will be fixed up.
