Description Niclas Zeising 2006-12-08 20:10:07 UTC 
The security profile option in sysinstall which used to pop up during install is no more. Update docs accordingly, adding a note saying that the option is gone.
Maybe we can delete the whole section, the option has been gone since 5.2

Note: The whole install chapter probably needs a facelift.

Fix: The attached patch adds a note saying that the security option is no more.

Patch attached with submission follows:
How-To-Repeat: Read the install chapter of the handbook.

I think it would be better to delete it - the handbook doesn't
document that old releases.

That sounds likely.

I thought so, wasn't 100% sure so i added the note instead.
Attached is a patch that removes the section entirely instead.

It will take some thinking through, and new screen shots i think. But we 
need a decent install chapter, so people know how to install FreeBSD.
