After a while i realized i didn't have the man pages, so i tried to install them using sysinstall, but sysinstall couldn't find the distribution. It was looking for the files in 6.2-RELEASE-p4, which of course don't exist on the mirror. >How-To-Repeat: 1) update system using freebsd-update 2) try to install any distribution using sysinstall >Fix: In sysinstall; go to the options menu, change releasename from 6.2-RELEASE-pX to 6.2-RELEASE >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
