FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE install failure

[David Markle]

Fetch is referring that the install is trying to ftp to the outside for the
files.  Do you have a firewall or filtering device protecting your system
???  If so, you may have to open it up.

Otherwise, try the Full ISO disk-1 image.  Its has pretty much everything
you need.

Subject: FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE install failure


Hi,

I'm trying to install FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE from a CD that was burned using
the miniinst.iso file. Installation seems to run fine, but after
installing the base files, it bombs out with the error "Unable to fetch
packages/INDEX" or something, afterwards the installation is aborting
completely!

How do I circumvent this annoying error? I don't need the packages!

Thanks,

Sven
