Greetings to all,
I’m proud to be upgrading from 4.2 – 6.1 this morning.
After the initial install, from disk one, I want to add some stuff that I
like AND make X work, KDE and all that .

With sysinstall, it tells me to put in disk 2 for some of the packages.  It
starts to read them, then displays a great deal of “failure” to add package
error messages.

Q:  is this a common occurrence?
Is this what happens with 6.1?


It's possible that CD2 is corrupted and/or burned at an incompatible speed.
But if you have internet connectivity, just get them from the source:

# pkg_add -r x11-fonts/webfonts

will download and install them from the source, so you know you are getting
the latest and greatest.

What else may be causing this?

If we both mean the n.n-RELEASE-arch-disc2.iso, this is the

I am unable to download the ISO image for disk 2 of the version 4.7 
freebsd.  I have tried almost every mirror site I can find and several 
different ftp clients.  Download always aborts after approximately 22MB 
completed.  I have successfully downloaded all of the other ISO images 
without any problems.  How can I get the disk 2 ISO image?

Please advise.

Thanks you,

Have you tried another download source...???
