Actually I did this a couple of weeks ago, only to find that Jordan's
latest version of sysinstall allowed you to do this through
command-line arguments. I didn't see the point in duplicating his work
so I gave up on it; in any case I wasn't totally confident about my
changes, and didn't have any way of testing it myself (although
several people kindly offered to try it out).

I don't even have the code now, as my disk with -current on died over
the weekend 8-(
