>Description:
A couple of friends of mine and I stumbled into a bug in sysinstall.
The problem is that it's coredumps when trying to read a package index from a ftp server.

We tried this on 5 Different machines. Using 4.3-release, 4.4-release and 4.5-release. We used different self-specified ftp-urls and such, but it didn't help.

If more questions arise, please feel free to contact me at the above adres.
>How-To-Repeat:
/stand/sysinstall
Options->Release Name 4.5-RELEASE->Q
Configure->Packages->FTP->URL->ftp.surfnet.nl/pub
Assume Network configured -> YES
Now wait for it to start loading the index.
It'll coredump.
