The floppy install is hanging on me.

On the first floppy, "kern.flp", the first
twirling dash goes OK.

Then, at the second "-", it does not twirl, but
the floppy continues to load. (At least the
LED on the drive stays on and you can hear the
head stepping. When the floppy head gets to the
last track, everything hangs.

This happens on two of my machines, which give
no trouble running 3.2 or 2.2.8 .

I've noticed this since (I think) 3.2, but I was able
to just upgrade using /stand/sysinstall and
change the release name in options, but now
the path on the FTP servers has changed and
it no longer will let me do that.

Anyone else run into this?
