I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but it's illogical if not.  The
situation pertains to the installation process and goes as follows:

I booted with kern.flp, then it asked for the next.  I go into the config.
Choosing
my network, medi, input etc.  I continue, it detects the ISA, PCI and PnP
stuff.  Then it asks me how I want to install the system.  I choose FTP, the
particular site, and then edit all the stuff for my dialup (gateway etc).
In Virtual Console 3 I try to connect as requested.  This fails and I return
to the first Virtual
Console and hit enter, again as requested.  This returns an error about not
connecting via FTP
(as dialup failed), and allows me to return and choose my access method and
edit my dialup stuff.

HOWEVER, the second time through I change the dial phone number, BUT it will
only dial the number I entered originally.  Even after being prompted to
enter a varying dialup number, it will only use the old phone number (the
one I enter the first time through setup).

If not a bug, it's illogical.


Sincerely,
Adrian Parker
