Hi dear developer team !

Jordan .... your FreeBSD installation floppy is getting better and
better. Good work. Although I had some problem, see below.

To the rest of the team ... thanks for this nice release !
Come on let's drink some virtual beers ;)

After doing some hurrays (Jordan, now you got some more :) now what
I found out:

- The second choice of the last installation menue of the floppy
  setup spawns a subshell. After exit the systems will be halted.
  So you have no chance to finish system / network setup properly.
  This was 2 days ago .... That's all I remember, sorry.

- The file /usr/share/info/dir has a typo in it
  s/(send-pr):/(send-pr)./

- The info files for amd are missing. Can be created easily from
  source tree using makeinfo.

- The info file for comerr seems to have an error in it. It can't 
  be displayed although it's there. Error is: cannot find node "Top".

- When going into /usr/sbin and doing a man * and browsing through 
  the pages by hitting 'q' you sometimes get an error like this. 
  It's not exactly reproduceable, it occurrs randomly. I use the
  default kernel from floppy:

	Formatting page, please wait... Pipe call failed
	Error executing formatting or displaying command
	System command exited with Status 512
	Failed.

  The second time I got this "flavour" of error message:

	Formatting page, please wait... ld.so: groff: libm.so.2.0: Too many open files. Done.
	Error executing formatting or displaying command
	System command exited with Status 512
	Failed.

- Can't compile kernel.
