Hello Since 7.0 fails installing on a Hitachi IDE drive, I installed a Minimal 6.2, but once done, its fails downloading packages: freebsd# pkg_add -r bash Error: FTP Unable to get ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6.2-release/Latest/bash.tbz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access) pkg_add: unable to fetch 'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6.2-release/Latest/bash.tbz' by URL Indeed, there's no /pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6.2-release/Latest/ Found it under /pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6-stable/shells/ So... 1. cd /tmp 2. fetched bash-3.2.33.tbz 3. pkg_add -r ./bash-3.2.33.tbz Error: FTP Unable to get ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6.2-release/Latest/./bash-3.2.33.tbz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access) pkg_add: unable to fetch 'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6.2-release/Latest/./bash-3.2.33.tbz' by URL Am I missing some configuration somewhere that would explain why 6.2 is having a hard time finding packages on the official site? Thank you.
