	Yes, but when I enter

		Release Name: 3.2-STABLE
		Media: FTP 
		Primary Site: ftp.freebsd.org [or any mirror]

I get the error "Warning:  Can't CD to '3.2-STABLE' distribution on this
FTP server...."


	but if I enter

		Release Name: 3.2-STABLE
		Media: FTP
		URL: ftp.freebds.org/.0/FreeBSD/releases/i386

it will work [I'm just too lazy to keep typing the URL every time I want
to install a package].
