lykich, kalim, when you choose a source to install from, go to Options and remove “-p#” from Release Name. After succesful install change Release Name back.

I have the same problem. I have FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE-p4 and when I select FTP site it says Can’t find the `7.2-RELEASE-p4′. So I can’t install man pages and info through sysinstall. What I have to do to fix it?

Use full path /usr/sbin/sysinstall on newly installed FreeBSD 6.x systems.

After having toyed with FreeBSD 5 I was wondering what had happened to sysinstall and obviously I couldn’t rtfm!
Thanks!
