In the end I succeeded without further obstacles, not even a single ftp timeout :-) although downloading seemed to go faster than actually extracting to disk. fxp0: rev 0x01 int a irq 16 on pci0.12.0 I also installed a box with an on-board 82558 (the above is an 82557 chipset), no trouble there either - as long as it's connected. :) I used IP addresses everywhere in the network configuration, except when selecting the ftp site where to retrieve the distribution from. The name server I use is on the same physical subnet, but I've seen it work with it on another physical subnet (so packets had to go via the default gateway)... -- Niels.
