>Release:        FreeBSD 3.0-970527-SNAP i386
>Environment:

	FreeBSD 3.0-970527-SNAP /stand/sysinstall

>Description:

	In either boot.flp or /stand/sysinstall, adding packages via FTP
	will cause sig-11.

>How-To-Repeat:

	From sysinstall Configure menu, choose Packages.
	choose certain amount of packages to add to the system.
	What is the exact number of packages is not clean now.
	5-6 will not cause sig-11, but 15 will.

>Fix:
	
	It looks like either sysinstall uses an array to hold number of
	Packages will be added or similar method which has overflowed.
	It could be a simple error in place to hold name of packages.
