For some reason it is using sl0 (i have no idea why) and I would input the numbers manually but unfortunately, I cannot do that as I am using the boot disk and am trying to install the latest release via FTP. Is there a way I can go into the boot disk and make modifications (as I dont have any other unix machines nearby) and the boot disk doesnt have utilities such as ls, cat, etc... Ifconfig should be setup as "ed0" i believe, but is there any way that this can be changed or fixed?
