--- Comment #3 from Nathan Whitehorn <nwhitehorn@FreeBSD.org> ---
Well, I found the issue and there's even a nice comment in the relevant code
that an older, smarter version of me put in in 2018 describing exactly why =
this
is going to break:

--------
# Unpack distributions
bsdinstall checksum
for set in $DISTRIBUTIONS; do
        f_dprintf "Extracting $BSDINSTALL_DISTDIR/$set"
        # XXX: this will fail if any mountpoints are FAT, due to inability =
to
        # set ctime/mtime on the root of FAT partitions. tar has no option =
to
        # ignore this. We probably need to switch back to distextract here
        # to properly support EFI.
        tar -xf "$BSDINSTALL_DISTDIR/$set" -C $BSDINSTALL_CHROOT
done

--------

I'll try to get a patch in today. Apologies for the breakage, and thanks for
the report.
