Hi,
I just tried to install FreeBSD/i386 from the 
FreeBSD-10.0-CURRENT-i386-20130525-r250975-release.iso snapshot.
The installer fails while extracting kernel.txz.
kernel.txz file is larger than usual. The file contains virtually 
everything from /usr/obj/usr/src and not just boot/kernel/* rooted 
at /usr/obj/usr/src/release/dist/base.
Maybe someone would look at the scripts involved when creating 
kernel.txz. Such a change will certainly make the snapshots more 
useful.
