I guess there usually no FTP directories created for patch level releases like 9.0-RELEASE-p3? Your proposal to introduce a new environment variable like TARGET makes sense. This could work like an override - when it is not set it can fall back to the default (using uname -r which makes sense for the installation media). > > Should I file a PR or did you already?

I would say it's more a feature request, but without it, bsdinstall not usable on non release environments. > > Thanks, > Matthias > > -- > Matthias Petermann
