>Description:
There are some problems with FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE AMD64 dvd1.iso installer when using SYSINSTALL (shell -> sysinstall). A directory "/dist" seems to be missing on the cd9660 filesystem and so packages cannot be mounted/extracted into that location, making installation impossible. The errors after COMMIT are following:

 "Couldn't create directory /dist: Read-only filesyetem" , "Error mounting /dev/cd1 on /dist: No such file or directory (2)".
>How-To-Repeat:
1. After instalator starts select Shell.
2. From shell start sysinstall.
3. Customize installation, click COMMIT, see error  "Couldn't create directory /dist: Read-only filesyetem" , "Error mounting /dev/cd1 on /dist: No such file or directory (2)".
>Fix:
Fix the  "Couldn't create directory /dist: Read-only filesyetem" , "Error mounting /dev/cd1 on /dist: No such file or directory (2)" problem - create "/dist" on installation media..?
