Bug ID: 192195
Summary: bsdinstall unable to choose optional system components
when fetching installation files over network
Product: Base System
Version: 10.0-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: Needs Triage
Severity: Affects Some People
Priority: ---
Component: bin

patch for bsdinstall auto script allowing extra components on network install
When bsdinstall finds a local Manifest file it offers the user the choice to
install optional system components like doc, games, ports or src. When this
Manifest does not exist locally (network install), the distribution components
is predefined to base and kernel. No opportunity exists to add in extra
components.
To reproduce:
Network boot freebsd installer e.g. through PXE.
Ensure no distribution packages or manifest exist locally.
Ensure bsdinstall is started using auto (default) mode.
Continue through installation.
Packages downloaded are base and kernel.
Expected to see the Distribution Select list as per a normal installation.
I have attached a patch to auto that brings consistency between network and
local installation.
