 Installation on a Pentium-133 with Buslogic 948 w/ 64M RAM
 This is post-installation. Sysinstall was brought up after a proper
 reboot, using /stand/sysinstall.
 During installation no attempt was made to install packages.

>Description:
   After choosing a couple of packages (tcsh and ncftp2), sysinstall
core dumped when trying to begin installation. 
	

>How-To-Repeat:
  1. Choose passive ftp for medium (don't know whether this affects it)
  2. Go to post-install configuration menu. Choose packages option
  3. Choose tcsh and ncftp2 for installation
  4. choose the install button.
  5. watch it core dump
