Hello all,

I've tried unsuccessfully over the last two releases to upgrade my desktop 
using bsd.rd/http set retrieval.

What I've done:

cd /
cp bsd.rd bsd.old.rd
ftp http://ftp5.usa.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/5.6/i386/bsd.rd # yes, my arch is 
i386

reboot

boot>boot bsd.rd

Then I begin the upgrade process, and when I get to set selection I follow the 
same procedure as shown in:
http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq4.html#InstMedia (FAQ 4.5.4), coincidentally 
having the same mirror being
closest to me.

At this point, I get the "couldn't find sets" error (sorry, I don't remember 
the exact verbiage). The versions
looked for were correct, base56.tgz, for example. I tried a few other mirrors, 
all with the same result.

I'd appreciate any help :)

-Scott
