Hiya

I seem to have this problem with sysinstall, whereby I cant seem to download the kernel source.

I tried following this example http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/freebsd-install-kernel-source-code/

I use "Install from an FTP server"

The error message I get is "Unable to transfer the sbase distribution from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org."

Does anyone know of another way to get the kernel source.

Cvs or svn.


Regards
Brent
