The manual says to run sysinstall and do the configuration step to add source distribution and I did that, but it then failed to download the 'sbase' source. I admit I gave up 'fairly quickly' and just downloaded src.txz, but its not clear to me how many of the functions of sysinstall are still supposed to work with a 9.0 release. James
