I wanted to install src onto an existing RELEASE-9.0 box (that is maintained using freebsd-update), since I needed to build lsof. I then used sysintall as follows:
* Media: ftp.freebsd.org * Distribution: custom -> src -> sys/base/include/lib Error message was then: | Unable to transfer the sbase distribution from │ │ ftp://ftp.freebsd.org. │ │ │ │ Do you want to try to retrieve it again? | I see some distributions here: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/amd64/9.0-RELEASE/ but I can't see anything called sbase.txz in my searching. This might work fine from CD, but this server is in the colo without an easy way for me to insert a CD.
