The problem encountered is when trying using mediaSetFTP with a valid ftp site, the URL menu window shows up instead. If using NFS as the mediaSet, that works without any problems. Looking at jkh's example in /release/install.cfg the only difference from what is below is the ftp site. nameserver=192.168.0.1 defaultrouter=192.168.0.1 ipaddr=192.168.0.100 netmask=255.255.255.0 _ftpPath=ftp://ftp.1u.ca/pub/FreeBSD netDev=fxp0 mediaSetFTP Can anyone shed some light on this?
