There are a few problems with sysinstall being not quite up to date with the available distributions: - the "proflibs" distribution is in the distribution list but doesn't seem to exist anymore. - when doing a Custom install, the XFree package installation is never selected unless you choose to install "All" of XFree, then deselect the packages you don't want. - some of the XFree distribution files don't seem to be properly installed. For example, X3323bin.tgz. Apparently this is a file name problem (sysinstall seems to want X332bin.tgz). There are others: at least X3323prog.tgz, X3323nest.tgz, X3323lkit.tgz, X3323lib.tgz... Other than that, the installation procedure is very easy and smooth when you are used to installing 2.2.x.
