Sorry, this is answered in the install manual after all. It can be
ignored. Sometimes it is hard to find the right section of the
install manual :-)

I succeeded in installing -current. However, booting stops at kernel
loading (turning bar). I think that was reported last week on this
list. I'll first try to cvs to the latest sources.
