Which reminds me ... shouldn't sysinstall read this kind of
information from the distribution area instead of hard-coding it
within sysinstall itself?  This would require "make release" to
generate some metadata about the release area, but then other
installers would have easy access to what's available for installation
as well, and you wouldn't have to modify sysinstall so much when
things change.
