I have tried to install via ftp several times, using rpmfind.net.  each 
time, the installer "fails to find" certain random packages.  so for 
example, i get to the point in the install where packages are being 
downloaded, and get an error "package VIM-x.x.xx could not be downloaded, 
continue with install?"  this would be non-fatal, except that some of the 
packages are core, eg bash.  i would image the problem is the installer is 
not retrying on a broken connect to the ftp server.  is this a "known 
issue"?  i don't think its a personal problem, b/c suse, debian and rh have 
all been cleanly ftp'd in the last week to the same machine with the same 
inet config.
