I boot up off the kern.flp and mfsroot.flp floppies and run through the install parameters. I am pointing to the location of my proxy server and port for the install, but it tells me it can't find the 4.2-release directory on the ftp site. When I use my browser, I can get to this location so why can't the install find it? DHCP works perfectly so I know the NIC and IP setup is working. Thanks in Advance!
