>Description:
I installed a system with a minimal setup, configured everything and updated the system using freebsd-update.

After a while i realized i didn't have the man pages, so i tried to install them using sysinstall, but sysinstall couldn't find the distribution. It was looking for the files in 6.2-RELEASE-p4, which of course don't exist on the mirror.
>How-To-Repeat:
1) update system using freebsd-update
2) try to install any distribution using sysinstall
>Fix:
In sysinstall; go to the options menu, change releasename from 6.2-RELEASE-pX to 6.2-RELEASE
