> Description:
I tried to install 9.0-current with the bootonly ISO but I get a "Cannot resolv \
hostname ftp.freebsd.org" error.

So I am not able to install 9.0-current on any of my machines (AMD and Intel-CPUs, \
but both quad-cores).

> How-To-Repeat:
I have tried ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/201005/FreeBSD-9.0-CURRENT-201006-amd64-bootonly.iso \
and all the other 9.0-current ISOs from 201001, 201002, 201004 and 201005.

This is what I have done:
- Booting from CD
- Select Region Germany
- Select german keyboard
- Select "Begin a custom installation"
- Select "View/Set various installation options"
- Select "Media Type"
- Select "Install from a FTP server"
- Select "ftp.freebsd.org"
- Select ra0 (my first LAN device)
- Select NO, i.e. no IPv6
- Select YES, i.e. DHCP
--- I get an IP-address from the DHCP-Server, also a  IPv4 gateway and a  nameserver
!!! but instead of going back to the menu I get an error message "Cannot resolv \
hostname ftp.freebsd.org"

Wen I try this with FreeBSD-8.0-STABLE or \
FreeBSD-8.1-PRERELEASE-201006-amd64-bootonly.iso I get _no_ error message and all \
went fine.

The problem is the same with the i386 ISOs.
