Description:
When you install Arch by FTP, using the ftp.gigabit.nu mirror, if you chose to keep the one you chose in the installer it puts the wrong path at the end of /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.
It works during install however.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start new install with /arch/setup
2. Chose ftp.gigabit.nu as download server (almost at the bottom of the list)
3. In Configure System > Pacman-Mirror opt to keep the SAME mirror used for installation.
3. Exit install and reboot
4. tail /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist and you'll see

Server = ftp://ftp.gigabit.nu/mirrorlist/os/i686

instead of the supposed

Server = ftp://ftp.gigabit.nu/$repo/os/i686
This task depends upon

Ftp installations are currently broken in general. Wait for the new iso
