           Summary: FreeBSD-10.2-STABLE-i386-20151217-r292403-bootonly.iso
                    .xz fails to install when fetching base.txz (runs in
                    to EROFS error with fetch(3))
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.2-STABLE
          Hardware: i386
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---

1. Download
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub//FreeBSD/snapshots/ISO-IMAGES/10.2/FreeBSD-10.2-STABLE-i386-20151217-r292403-bootonly.iso.xz
.
2. Burn or mount the image as a virtual device so it attaches to the system
(real or virtual) at boot and attempts to boot off of it.
3. Following the standard dialogs for installing the system. Setup the network
with IPv4; IPv6 is optional.
4. Choose "UFS (Auto)" for the disk partitioning options and hit Finish.

Expected results:

If my network was up and running, it would download all of the files and
proceed to install them to the disk after 4.

Actual results:

I run into an EROFS error from fetch(3), because it's trying to fetch the files
to an unwritable filesystem as the device is mounted read-only (I've attached a
screenshot). I suspect this is a bootonly image issue.
