That's the distinction between "a" and "b" on the initial "sysinst"
dialog box:

               │ a: Install NetBSD to hard disk                │                
               │ b: Upgrade NetBSD on a hard disk              │                
               │ c: Re-install sets or install additional sets │                

"a" overwrites everything, also with the "etc" set, "b" will
run you through merge actions instead.

For the extra X11 sets, the proper choice is ofcourse "c".
