My memory may be failing me, but there used to be a port called "instant workstaion" that accomplished quite a bit, and the installer would drop in X but asked for KDE or Gnome, but I don't recall when those choices went away.
This is in fact what I remember too: one had a choice of Server or Workstation and a further choice of KDE or GNOME. I remember that when I saw the choice of KDE or GNOME I had no idea which I should choose because I knew nothing about them.
I will re-explore these sysinstall options, and grabbing packages with FTP once I can figure out how to get some sort of networking going on my new laptop.
