Description Mattias Karlsson 1999-08-28 22:30:00 UTC
        Problem to when sysinstall is going to add the default route 
        if the network card is connected to the network after pressing 
        OK in the network config screen. If this happens then sysinstall 
        hangs forewer if not the machine get's a packet from the router.
        so the machine get's the routers ethernet address.

How-To-Repeat: 
        Boot from the install disks on FreeBSD and don't plug in the 
        cable in the network card until you have configured the network
        and the machine say's Adding default route to x.x.x.x.

This looks like one of those "well don't do that" problems, but 
Jordan might be interested in an extra safety net.

I don't there's any way to avoid this in a meaningful fashion.
