While the "Subnet Mask" label is correct [1] it may be a helpful addition to
`bsdinstall` to strip the mask from network blocks in CIDR notation.
----

Sorry as an entry the 'Subnet Mask' is not correct, putting in '24' might be,
but:

10.0.0.0/24 is a network and subnet mask, where the dialog requests subnet mask
only.

----
provided incorrectly to the Subnet Mask field, an error message could be
presented.
----

I would rephrase that to 'an error message *should* be presented as its an
invalid input.
