Unfortunately, the problem with ftp.eecs.umich.edu is not with forgetting to
use the -o option with sup.  I have the old option in the supfile I use just to
avoid this type of problem.  The real problem is that I haven't been able to
get a sup to finish without errors for the past couple of days.  Here's the
error I get now:

SUP Receiving file NetBSD-1.0/i386/floppies/kcaha-10.fs
SUP: Read error on network: Connection reset by peer
SUP: Network write timed out
SUP: Error in receiving NetBSD-1.0/i386/floppies/kcaha-10.fs

SUP: Upgrade of mirror-all aborted at Oct 31 20:16:08 1995

Could somebody make sure that something isn't wrong with kcaha-10.fs on
sup.netbsd.org?  It always seems to die at about 1052672 Bytes.  Is
sup.netbsd.org still sick?  In any case, I ftp'd down the non-zero length 
files so at least they are fixed.  

Thanks for catching this,
Brian Moore
