I'll fix the documentation issue, but note EMBEDDEDPORTS does not do what you seem to think it does - it is only useful for embedded devices (i.e., arm/armv6, arm64/aarch64). Hmmm... I was trying to add some ports to the image(s) so they'd be more useful at work without having to install the system (I have some systems booted over IPMI with the ISOs mounted), e.g. EMBEDDEDPORTS=devel/ipmitool I assume this is just for building though :/?

Correct. As-is, this is only used to generate the final image, not a list of what is installed on the target image. I do have a few items in-progress at the moment that will allow doing what you want, but it somewhat depends on getting the release-pkg branch sorted out, and merged to head first. The mkisoimages.sh scripts, however, already natively support what you are trying to accomplish, and somewhat recently, support for this has been added to the various ISO image targets by specifying XTRADIR. Alternatively, you can use pkg(8) chroot(8) functionality to populate the DESTDIR/usr/local with the package(s) you want included on the ISO, but there is no target to do this automatically yet.
