Yesterday I downloaded the aforementioned snap and tried to use "upgrade" on some old machines (running 2.1.7.1 and 2.2.1). Using the boot.flp, sysinstall botched reading the existing disklabel for both machines (one using a 2G SCSI disk off an NCR825, the other a laptop using a 1G drive). It picked up the slices (fdisk) just right, it just claimed that neither disk was set up into partitions. When I rebooted using the 2.2.5 boot.flp, sysinstall picked up the labels of both disks correctly. Hence, this is a bug introduced since 2.2.5.
