I've been trying out 9.0-BETA1: it's a lot easier to install than

Good! Thanks for checking.
Typo - "Resovler Configuration".
If I leave the resolver window for a while it gets corrupted with:

Interesting. It looks like DHCP doesn't like your local setup...
In the documentation installation screen, it should say "At a
minimum..." - the 'a' is missing. Also, there should perhaps be a
semi-colon between "English version" and "this is the original". The
menu also doesn't appear to do anything once you select "OK".
The spelling fixes are easy to fix. The documentation issue is more
confusing. It should begin running pkg_add, after you press OK, assuming
you selected something. Do you have the installer log handy? It will be
in /tmp.

Hmm I think it's "default" PACKAGESITE env variable pointing on
non-existing

I'm wrong, I did an install and same behavior as Bruce.
I looked in /tmp/bsdinstall_log:
Running installation step: docsintall
pkg_add: unable to fetch
'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/amd64/packages-9-current/Latest/en-freebsd-doc.tbz'

I haven't looked at bsdinstall lately, but IIRC there's no dialog that
offers a mirror selection? It would be nice to select a nearby server.
For the regular distfiles (base, kernel, etc.) you can pick a mirror,
but installing packages (e.g. documentation) relies on the behavior of
pkg_add -r.
