installing DP1 via ftp

2002-09-30 Thread Hanspeter Roth

Hello,

I've installed DP1 from CD. It doesn't like the Promise ATA100 TX2.
`boot -c' just behaves exactly like normal boot and stops in the
debugger.

Thus I thought I could install via FTP. But what will I get?
Will I get a `current' current?
Or will I get DP1 from April again?

I've interrupted after /bin has been downloaded. And what do I see?

mnt/bin # ll

-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel   70952 Apr  7 01:44 cat

-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel   64484 Apr  7 01:44 chio

It seems to be DP1 from April.

sysinstall, by default, will install the version it was built for.
You can change this by manually specifying a different URL/path to the
release bits, or you can just download new installation media from the
desired snapshot (this is the preferred option) and use that to
install with.

I can only see /pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/5.0-20020302-PREVIEW.
Is there a more recent snapshot?

ftp://current.freebsd.org builds daily snapshots.
