>Description:

	When i was installing today i logged in to one of out servers and 
	started to read my mail and after a while my telnet hang. After some
	research i discovered that the sysinstall had both removed the default
	route and ifconfiged down the ethernet interface. My syggestion is to
	atleast warn before the network is taken down.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Try to install a 2.0.5-RELEASE computer, telnet to another host
	and wait while sysinstall finishes.

You should wait for sysinstall to finish before you start using it like that.
