P.S. I know how to get it workingbut for the sake of simplicity
and non-confusionsysinstall should have consistency in it's
interface, and the options that are presented should in fact work/do
what they say.
Ok, I'll buy that.
Sounds like you should submit a PR.

OK...I've been running FreeBSD since 4.0...and I've always noticed
installation issues here and there. Mostly though, I've always been
good to go after a good dry run (which I always recommend to everyone I
recommend FreeBSD to) and usually on a 2nd run all the options are fine.
I've pretty
But now I've installed 6.0 for the first time on a machine that I plan
on making a production box, and I've still noticed some of the
installation oddities.

FreeBSD.
Two issues:

Hello,
I've installed FreeBSD enough times, but have never had anything like this
happen before. I searched the mailing list archives and couldn't find
anything of use there either ... I was wondering if anyone has had any
similar issues ...
I've tested this with a storebought 4.2 version disk,

The network adapters listed in the kernel config are ISA NICs
that require
configuration.
I've recently installed FBSD on a Sony VAIO laptop. I
have a Kingston Network pc card installed. The
install goes fine, but can someone tell me why:
1. during the network interfaces configuration the
pc card is noticed as ed1 instead of ed0? Shouldnt it
be ed0. or does it matter?
2.
