Once you have a miniroot booted, the first thing
.Nx
will ask you for is a terminal.
If you are running on the keyboard and mouse you want to select
.Ic sun
while if you are using a serial console from an X terminal you need to select
.Ic xterm
Selecting the wrong terminal settings may cause display corruption or
.Ic sysinst

The
.Ic sysinst
program will do most of the work of transferring the
system from the distribution sets onto your disk.
You will frequently be asked for confirmation before
.Ic sysinst
proceeds with each phase of the
installation process.
.Pp
Occasionally, you will have to provide a piece of information such as the
name of the disk you want to install on or IP addresses and domain names
you want to assign.
If your system has more than one disk, you may want
to look at the output of the
.Xr dmesg 8
command to see how your disks
have been identified by the kernel.
.Pp
The sysinst goes through the following phases:
.(bullet
determination of the disk to install
.Nx
on
.It
checking of the partition information on the disk
.It
setting of the local timezone
.It
creating and mounting the
.Nx
file systems
.It
setup of IP configuration
.It
extraction of the distribution tar files
.It
installation of boot programs
