Description chris 1999-04-29 17:47:41 UTC 
When installing from the network via http (bootnet.img) - I
entered an invalid netmask (255.255.252.1) and it gave me an
SIOC error and then hung.

I have verified this to occur on a test lab machine. It is being
assigned to a developer.
Comment 2 Jay Turner 2000-02-10 19:09:59 UTC 
Issue is resolved in the latest release.
