Looks fairly positive over all.

Every time I try this I have some kind of problem
(Regarding FTP install)
This guy must be doing something wrong or has a really sh!tty internet connection, because the ftp install couldn't possibly be any easier.

I've only done it a couple of dozen times on 3 architectures. The only problems I've had, I've caused. Or my crappy connection has gone down.

I wonder what he's doing wrong. :p

I've been using the crimelabs.net mirror for installs, their server is really fast.
sometimes the openbsd.org server can get pretty slow.

I think crimelabs is selection #68 on the ftp mirror list for anyone interested.

rt.fm is my mirror of choice for most things. For snapshots I usually just use ftp.openbsd.org because it's usually the most up to date.
