From 9c59988175ffd6b42c6927c0939e13abc43f7344 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Philip Paeps Date: Thu, 15 Feb 2024 21:49:33 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] bsdinstall: prefer HTTP In 2024, users are more likely to have working HTTP than working FTP. Present http://ftp.FreeBSD.org as the first option in the installer. Keep ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org as the second option.
