Quoting Matthew Dillon <dillon at apollo.backplane.com>:

:After not being able to wake anyone in IRC, I decide to file this 
bug report in
:the hopes that the build machine creating the Latest DEVEL can be 
updated, or I
:can be told how to fix it for myself.

    Don't worry about it, I'm going start working on the installer
    for the release tomorrow.  I'll be sure to fix the paths.

Matt,

Thanks for looking at this.  I'm going to have to reinstall when a replacement
drive arrives (one out of five was DOA), so I'll get a chance soon (hopefully
before you release) to ensure it works.
I've also dropped a message on the bsdinstaller's "discussion" list about the
way they filter passwords.  Basically, the filter they placed has too many
false postives.  I've got a patch here to relax this:
http://www.labthug.com/~adrian/bsdinstaller/passwd.patch

I'm also still interested in how the installer builds, installs, and ties
together with the nrelease process, considering that the only testing I
currently know how to give the above patch is a compile.  Any information you,
or someone else, can pass along will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again,

Adrian
