Yeah, I read that. The point was I didn't want to get all of the updates
to the source tree if I could avoid doing so.
All I'm looking for is the couple of c files or whatever needed to build
myself a copy of the newer sysinstall. (FTP directory?)
I did try the floppy- but when I mounted it under freebsd, there wasn't
any "stand" directory...

Thanks.
