Well, would you belive me if I said that we forgot it ?
I have put it on my list now.

Here's what you can do:

    At the first screen, select "No" to get a single-user shell

    ifconfig (and all that)

    mkdir /usr/tmp

    ftp the dists into /usr/tmp

    ^D

    Now you have the menu again, select "Yes"

    Choose the dists you want

    Choose "UFS" installation

    At the shell prompt: ^D

    Enter /usr/tmp for the path

And you should be humming...
