You can check what packages you have installed by using pkg_info (see
its man page). However, there's no way to check what distributions you
have installed. Simply check whatever you want to *add* and sysinstall
will add it for you. Checking something you already have should cause no
damage (except, maybe, for the bin distribution) because you normally
don't modify files that are part of the distribution.
