>Release:        2.2.7
>Environment:
Intel 486DX
>Description:
When attempting to install FreeBSD 2.2.7 over a local network from a
local FTP server, the install dialog does not permit selection of 
anything but the listed FTP servers.  Although the dialog box says you
can select "other" there is no way to do this that I can find, and 
"other" is not on the list.
>How-To-Repeat:
Happens every time you try to use the installation diskette.
>Fix:
I suggest that you add some way to do an anonymous FTP installation from
any machine, provided the address is known.
