>Description:
	
Installing via FTP doesn't work because installation still searches for files
in snapshot directory and not release.

I'm not sure if this affects other architectures as well.

>How-To-Repeat:
	
boot from 7.0-RC2-sparc64-bootonly.iso and try to install via ftp from
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/sparc64/7.0-RC2/
sysinstall searches for files in /pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/sparc64/7.0-RC2

The path can not be corrected in the options menu.

>Fix:

	
Correct path in installer or move files back to snapshots directory (not a good
idea)
