>Description:

	while testing a -current sparc64 sysinst install, i noticed that
	nearly ever screen gets redraw several times before the next
	screen is shown (eg, after a selection is made).  this tends to
	being quite slow on serial consoles, and looks really bad.

>How-To-Repeat:

	install with sysinst on a ultra1 connected to a serial console.

>Fix:

	not given.
