This is a known issue. Jordan broke the fixit floppy for 3.0. My guess is he's trying to use the same internal fn to mount the floppy for doing a DOS floppy install as he is mounting the fixit floppy. End result: sysinstall gets royally confused. He's aware of the problem and promises to fix it. Sometime. :) Gary -- Gary Palmer FreeBSD Core Team Member FreeBSD: Turning PC's into workstations.
