So you mean that selecting OK doesn't move onto the installation media?

Slightly off topic:
A while ago you use to be able to hit Enter and it would select OK but
some changes have been made (I think to 'dialog') which now has Enter
select and deselect the options.  I noticed this when installing cvsupit
from the ports tree.  If you read it, it says to hit Enter if you want
src-all but Enter not selects the first option, src-base.  You need to hit
TAB then Enter with no options selected to get src-all.  Same in the
mod_php and postgresql ports.  I think someone needs to go through and
reword the pkg-install files a tad.
