Description dada 1999-08-08 14:40:00 UTC

	After choosing DOS/wfd0s4 as installation media,
	installation aborts with "no such file or directory".

Fix: 

I was able to complete the installation by modifying the filesystem
	on the 2nd floppy (mfsroot.gz).
	I mounted it with vnconfig and added /dev/wfd0s4[c] manually.
	(Of course this only works with access to an already installed
	FreeBSD system having a ZIP drive.)

	However I suppose the correct fix would be to create appropriate
	/dev/* entries by the install programm before doing the mount.
How-To-Repeat: 
	Install from (IDE) ZIP drive.
