Basically, I'm trying to conserve space by performing a Custom install. This is what I'm choosing: bin compat1x compat20 compat21 des des krb dict doc info man catman ports XFree86 bin cfg doc html lib man set SVGA Server VGA16 Server fnts fcyr fscl Everything but the XFree86 is installed. Even after rebooting, sysinstall still refuses to install XFree86. Am I doing something wrong? I assume that a package needed by XFree86 is not selected and refuses to install until so selected. Sysinstall will install XFree86 if all XFree86 is selected. I have even reinstalled FreeBSD using 2.2.7-980719-BETA but the problem persists. Any help is appreciated. ---------------------------------------- Derek Flowers djflow@erols.com http://portwwwbus.tc.cc.va.us/~djflow "640K ought to be enough for anybody." -Bill Gates, circa 1981 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
