>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2-961006-SNAP i386
>Environment:

The 2.2-961006-SNAP (installed 10-10-96, fetched from ftp.freebsd.org).
Motherboard:  ASUS PVI-486SP3, CPU:  Cyrix 586-100, RAM:  32 MB,
SCSI:  AHA-1542CF, Hard Drive:  a SCSI-2 Seagate 1 gig drive,
ethernet adapter:  NE2000 clone.

>Description:

I installed from scratch over the net (using regular FTP).  Installing
the SNAP worked fine.  However, sysinstall is failing when I
try to install packages.  Ie I select bash and tcsh,
it will fetch and install one of them, and "hang" at the screen
where it tells me it successfully installed a package.  I can abort
with control-c, and restart sysinstall.  This all worked fine
in the previous SNAP (960801).

>How-To-Repeat:

Start /stand/sysinstall, try to install packages.

>Fix:
	
Restart sysinstall for every package.
