I agree with you that more info should be provided by sysinstall, but when you are asked *too* many questions, it becomes annoying. Case in point when you delete files in win95.

1st try: "Are you sure that you want to send this directory to the recycle bin?" Yes.

2nd try: "foo.exe is a program. Are you sure you want to send it to the recycle bin?" Yes-to-All.

3rd try: File-Empty Recycle bin. "Are you sure you want to delete these programs?" Yes.

You have to answer yes three times to delete the program.

It sounds like that is what you would like sysinstall to prompt you for each package you install.

1st try: You have selected these packages for installation. OK.

2nd try: Did you really say yes? I can't remember so I'll ask you again. Yes.

3rd try: Hmm...how bout I ask you for a third time if you want to install this package. Yes.

What's that you say? Yes? Well then! We'll proceed to installing the package now...

Not sure if any of the above had anything to do with your email, but oh well.
