I want to install FreeBSD via FTP.

I have an AIX machine on which I mount the FreeBSD-CD. The CD is not
mounted as /cdrom but I have made a symlink to the real mountpoint.

I set the URL of the AIX machine to ftp://192.168.0.1//cdrom.

I use my own user to FTP to AIX machine. Success.

Then I get an error that the install program can not get the 'dists' or
something.

What is wrong?
