Re: Unable to find/install x11.

    Hi, just to share it, I found sysinst a bit dangerous when I was very
    very novice in NetBSD. Trying to install sets from sysinst I ended
    overwriting /etc/.

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".

Thanks Martin for clarifying it. I do not remember exactly what I was trying to do that day. Perhaps it was "c" and I marked everything cause I thought: "yes, I want all the sets". :-)

Regards.
