I chose 'custom' install. Again, don't do that. Custom means you know what you're doing. > It may have been a menu item, but nothing as 'in your face' as > the 'install ports?' question. If you chose custom, nothing goes in your face because the assumption is that you know what you're doing and will select such options *explicitly* through the post-configuration menus (where they do indeed exist if you look). Custom is for people who don't want anything in their face, they know exactly what they're doing and exactly what sysinstall is capable of at any given time. If people are getting that confused by this then I'll happily remove custom from the set of options and make all of you go through the Standard installation whether you like it or not. :-) - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
