Dear Sirs!

I am having some problems with the (new?) installer. I want to install
OpenBSD 5.8 off-line.

(1) I burned a CD Rom with install58.iso, it booted, but when it
     asks for the location of installation sets, it does not offer
     cdrom, only disk and http.

(2) I tried to install with PXE Boot, I booted bsd.rd from another
     machine that also offered the sets with http to 10.0.0.1/5.8/i386,
     but the installation program did not find the sets. I went to
     shell and the sets could inded be fetched with "ftp" program from
     that location. BTW ftp is also not offered, only disc and http.

(3) It is nice to have an installation program, but nicer for me
     would be to have instructions for installing OpenBSD with the shell
     offered. I am sure I can do it with some experimenting, but there
     would remain doubts that all was well done, for example regarding
     permissions.

I thank you for hints
Rodrigo.
