Hi Nathan,

sorry for the delayed response. I am fully ok with the proposed 
solution. The options - using the *Other* Button or set the 
*BSD_INSTALL_DISTSITE* Environment variable are enough with respect to 
the very specific use case. I personally now use sysutils/ezjail from 
the ports for large Jail deployments, which manages the installation for 
me. Anyway, it could be benefitial to add bsdinstalls jail capabilities 
to the handbook, including best known methods.

Kind regards,
Matthias

p.s. you can close the PR - I am fine with the current state. Thanks!

The attached patch strips the patch level from the release name before
attempting to fetch the distribution files.
