I ran into this same problem when I was trying to install FreeBSD-4.6.2-RELEASE. I think that the solution is actually to flip to a different page in the sysinstall program and provide the additional options that you need. Unfortunately, although I think I stumbled into this solution, I couldn't tell you how to replicate it. -- Brad Knowles, "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania.
