I am using FreeBSD-14.2-RELEASE-amd64-bootonly 1) The installation was aborted when the installer couldn't find the sets on the finish ftp mirror. I have to lovely situation that I do not get a IPv6 address from my internet provider and therefore I have to use v4 mirrors. With almost all software I use, I go for some german mirrors but all of them were v6 only, so I tried the finnish ftp. However, for some reason there were multiple sets missing on this server (incl base) and the installer aborted the installation process instead of giving me the option to select a new mirror. Although this is annoying because I'd have to type my ZFS-encryption password again, it is completely manageable. I could just use a different mirror or use an installation medium that has these sets already included. And I would not have written this mail if I didn't encounter: 2) The installer asks for my ZFS password?! After the installation failed, I tried to run the installer a second time - now with a different mirror. I did not reboot the machine because I was given the option to simply restart the process. When I got to the Auto-ZFS setup, I was unable to select any disk. The installer said that there were no disks available. I changed to a different tty and used 'camcontrol devlist' and my drive was listed there. So I rebooted the machine but now I was asked to put in the password I setup in the first (unsuccessful) installation attempt. Only after that I was able to boot from usb again and launch the installer another time. I am 100% certain that I did not select the USB for installation before. I even flashed the USB another time but it would still ask me for the disk password before I can boot from USB. And yes, I did select the USB in the boot menu. I have installed FreeBSD many times but this confuses me and does not seem to be the intended behavior. So I thought I would write a mail about this. Also while writing this and staring at the laptop, it seems to restart every so often while waiting for the disk password. I have never seen this before. I'll probably try a different image now but I am still very unsure if I should proceed with the installation when he asks me for the disk password. Kind regards
