Subject:   subsequent package install of XFree86 under 3.3.3?

I had a machine with a minimal 2.2.8 install on it, and I wanted to practice 
doing an upgrade from local 3.3.3 sources.  I did it, and it seems to have
worked.  There was no X installed on the box.

Now I want to install X on it, from the 3.3.3 CDroms that recently arrived.

What incantations do I use to do this?

The "Custom" install simply loops between the custom install screen and the
media page.  If I use the Index and select the parts I want, the Commit
doesn't find anything.

I can't run the "extract" program from the XFree86 subdir because it's an
executable and the eXecute bit isn't set.

I haven't found anything in the docs on the CD, either.
