The network can be down, Harold might be trying to install from a non-privileged user, if he is using sudo, sudo might be misconfigured, he might be using ports, than: his ports could be outdated, he fetched a broken port (I've been complaining about fetching from HEAD by default not so long ago), etc. As a pre-help I'd suggest doing: I. su freebsd-update fetch install II. and if Harold uses ports: portsnap fetch update else: pkg upgrade After that trying again and reporting here, in case of failure, outputs of the following commands would be nice to be provided: df -h nslookup goo.gl ping -c 3 8.8.8.8 dmesg -- Cheers~ PGP key fingerprint: 07B3 2177 3E27 BF41 DC65 CC95 BDA8 88F1 E9F9 CEEF You can retrieve my public key at pgp.mit.edu.
