Dave Walton stands accused of saying: > > I've run into the same problem: After installation, sysinstall can't > find the packages when you specify CD-ROM as the install media.

That done, it works fine. Use pkg_manage directly, rather than sysinstall. > David Walton Programmer -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and (GSM mobile) 0411-222-496 [[ ]] realtime instrument control (ph/fax) +61-8-267-3039 [[ ]] "wherever you go, there you are" - Buckaroo Banzai [[
