Default pkgsrc pkg_add problems not connecting

Hi Mr-Biscuit

two things:

first, to check on the bios of your pc if the board is composed of network and has some extra settings that may be suspended when the connection is very slow, which is the case of

ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/pack...D/i386/5.0/All

a little google on the topic of how the board works and how to configure your network

If they can not solve, in general, if the problem is that, you have to reboot and then try to install the pkg, example:
[su - root -c 'pkg_add -v gnome']

Or you want to install pkg

SECOND: if it does not work, income from that PC's browser or to other ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/pack...D/i386/5.0/All
pkg download and you are asking, for example: [gnome*.tbz]

and make a copy of that file to the directory ['/var/tmp']

and then try again

[su - root -c 'pkg_add -v gnome']

if pkg is calling for the installation, verify the above, the installation continues and if the same thing happen again ...
need to repeat the procedure

sorry for the way of writing ... I'm not very good with English language and this is directly translated to a program.


I hope to provide some response, but that I have solved several of pkg
