The bsdinstall distribution selection menu screen has the games & ports options checked with an asterisk meaning these are the defaults. All the options on this menu should be blank so user has to purposesly click on those options to enable them with an asterisk. There had been talk about removing games from the base install all together a few years ago. Has this been carried forward in error? The sysinstall procedure asks the user two different time if they want to install the ports collection. BDSinstall should at least make it mandidtory to purposesly click on the ports option to install them.

This is especially true since the ports collection that is installed isn't a portsnap snapshot, but looks like a snapshot from cvs instead, which is not what most users will want. -- Bruce Cran
