>Originator:     Nick Hibma
>Release:        2.2.6
>Organization:
Joint Research Centre
>Environment:
n/a (Installation from CD ROM on emptied disk)
>Description:
When doing the network configuration right after the installation from CD ROM
of version 2.2.6 of FreeBSD, the default answer for the gateway is 'NO'. When
pressing OK this answer is not accepted.

This is only a problem if you do not need to fill in that field because you are
going to use DHCP later on anyway.
>How-To-Repeat:
Press OK again without changing the IP address of the gateway.
>Fix:
Modify sysinstall to put an empty string instead of the string 'NO' in
the menu.
