All I am saying was: 1- I installed the FreeBSD 5.4 i386 on the system without any problems. 2- After I finished installing. I decided to install other packages so I ran sysinstall 3- when I ran sysinstall disc2 was inserted (it was just there) 4- I chose the new packages to install like expat, apache, portupgrade, portsnap, etc. 5- sysinstall installed the packages from disc2 then showed a msg that expat is located on disc1 and requested disc1 6- I inserted disc1 to fulfill the request and it installed the packages. 7- an error msg showed up saying that apache cannot be found on the media and it failed to install. I know that apache is on disc2. All I was saying that sysinstall should have asked for disc2 to be inserted like it did for disc1. All I did to fix this (obviously) I ran sysinstall again with disc2 inserted and it installed it. So, should this be considered a bug in sysinstall because it didnt ask for the disc even tho it should have known that it is located on disc2. bazzoola
