Question Install from FTP


I try to install FC6 from FTP, but every time it gives me an error, that it can't find anaconda2006... repodata.xml, or something like that. Now, I ask, why oh why does it have to complain only after forcing me to add another 5-6 options, and why doesn't it check right away to see if the address is good? And why does it have to exit the setup every single time I make the slightest mistake? (A couple of times I received some exceptions, oh those were really nice). Is that what they call user-friendly? No intention to offend anybody. Please help me, and tell me how should I configure that darn path. Thank you in advance.

Got it. Fill in until i386/os . Don't put a trailing slash and don't start with a slash. Don't know why they say 'pub/fedora/linux/core/6/' in the example. Anyways, wish me luck on discovering the user-friendliness of fedora. Because I didn't see it with that installer.
