Description ecsd 2002-02-15 01:30:00 UTC

/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.5-RELEASE/floppies/mfsroot.flp
the default system to install is listed as 4.3-RELEASE, not
4.5-RELEASE.

Fix: 

If the floppy content is being shared in the FTP system, make sure
it no longer is and correct the label.
How-To-Repeat:       download the listed file and use it in an install, observe the results.

You didn't happen to use a 4.3-RELEASE kern.flp? It is actually the
release of the kern.flp that will determine what is used as the
release name, not anything on the mfsroot.flp.

Make sure you are using a 4.5-RELEASE kern.flp and try again. I'll
close this up if you can verify that this is the issue.

Waiting to hear from submitter on whether he used a 4.5-RELEASE 
kern.flp.
