HTTP/FTP install problem

I seem to be having some trouble getting HTTP and FTP installs to work
with FC3 (final release version).
I use the standard linux askmethod option to get it to give me the
choice of a network installation. But when I type in the hostname and
directory, it appends a / to the end of the hostname.
IE:
hostname: mirror.linux.duke.edu
directory: /pub/linux/fedora/core
... is somehow reinterpreted as
http://mirror.linux.duke.edu//pub/linux/fedora/core
Obviously, the installer can't find the appropriate file, and promptly
fails right there. Is this a known problem, and are there any
workarounds? Even just a server that automatically fixes this kind of
error would be good enough.
