Description Carsten Zimmermann 2011-12-08 12:40:07 UTC 
I have installed a Freebsd 9-RC3 w/o IPv4 into a Virtualbox VM. IPv6 connectivity works fine (installed the system from the net after a boot from the boot only iso). However, sysinstall errors with 'Network is unreachable' on whichever IPv6 mirror site I choose.

It's probably trying to connect via v4. v6 works on the machine
