Auriga, Inc.
>Environment:
n/a
>Description:
In a screen for setting installation options, user is prompted to choose
the terminal type. The expected behavior is to cycle through cons25 ->
cons25-m -> xterm -> ansi -> vt100 -> cons25w -> cons25. But, after switching
to cons25-m the next attempt to change terminal type causes sysinstall to
die.

>How-To-Repeat:
Press Space on Terminal option in Options menu twice.

>Fix:
I have not dug deeply into it, but a quick glance reveals that xterm is not
present in src/etc/termcap.small. Could this be a culprit?
