Hello, When I installed my system, I used the .iso images of 5.4-STABLE-SNAP006 for a minimal installation and then installed various packages using pkg_add -r, downloading them from its default setting of ftp.freebsd/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-stable/Latest. I would like to use /stand/sysinstall for installing additional packages but its option release name is set to use 5.4-STABLE-SNAP006. This gives an error message saying that it cannot find that distribution on an ftp server. I've tried changing the release name under installation options but nothing I've entered works (e.g., "5.4-STABLE" or "5.4-LATEST"or "RELENG-5"). So how do I configure /stand/sysinstall to point to the latest stable version to use it for installing additional packages? Confused FreeBSD User
