Ok, maybe someone can answer this because I'm genuinely curious.

When in custom mode, how much guidance do you get?  I mean, I've already
talked about the Slackware method of dividing packages up into categories,
or used to be called disk sets for the days when that would work.  I find
this incredibly useful and a massive time-saver.  Btw, you can still
install the A series to flopppies if you want, according to the docs, to
get your system up and running.

Cheers.
