The base install package wants to take over, and if you quit, you get nailed with an immediate reboot. Not good if you want to clone systems. I want to be able to clone easily -- I can with BSDI, as their installation has parts I can run from a shell to do things like partition disks in a reasonable and easy to use format. FreeBSD appears not to have this as a possible option.
