>How-To-Repeat:

	I hope this repeats....

	I was doing an install.  Since the security distribution isn't
	included on the cd, I ftp'ed it to a local system and after
	installing everything else from cdrom, I tried to use the install
	program to ftp over the security distribution.

	I usually turn prompting off and when I typed 'mget *' without
	remembering to turn prompting off, I did what I normall do in that
	situation: I hit ^C.

	The install script picked up on this and switched me back to 
	primary virtual console.   Ftp was still trying to get my keystrokes
	and so was the install program.  A few moments of typing later,
	the system panic'ed.
