5.4 NFS install broken?

2005-05-28 Thread Steve Rikli
How does one create the NFS installation directory for FreeBSD-5.4 ? I.e. is it supposed to be as simple as dumping the entire contents of CD#1 & CD#2 into a directory on an NFS server, and pointing 'sysinstall' to it? I've been doing 4.x & 5.x NFS installs successfully with an NFS server's repos
