            Bug ID: 213488
           Summary: bsdinstall wants MANIFEST from filesystem even when
                    installing from ftp
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.0-STABLE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: petr.fischer at me.com

First of all - this error occurs when I run bsdinstall from already installed
FreeBSD system only (not from the official memstick install media - install
medias are OK, because everything [base.tgz, kernel.tgz..] is on install
media).

When I run bsdinstall from already installed system, program asks for ftp, then
downloads install archives [base, kernel...], but, after download, install
program wants to check MANIFEST file and this error occurs:

"Error while fetching file:///usr/freebsd-dist/MANIFEST" - no such file or
directory.

Of course, there is no MANIFEST on installed FreeBSD system.

Maybe, IMHO, bsdinstall need to download this file from ftp too (not from local
filesystem).
