These can all be tuned via /etc/make.conf (look at
/usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf or man 5 make.conf).
For instsance, if you don't want kerberos you would put
NO_KERBEROS=
in your /etc/make.conf and the same for games, cvs, gpib, et al.

Hi,
  
 From the beginning, I just install the base distribution 
of FreeBSD 5.4, no other package like man, games, compat4x.
  
 After make buildworld & installworld to Release 5.4 p12, 
it seems all of the world will be installed.( if I have 
a mistake, please tell me ! )
  
 So, how can I upgrade the machine with just the distribution 
I installed before ?
  
 Thanks !
 




make.conf(5) should help.  Of course, if you've not
installed the manpages, you'll have to find them
at the freebsd.org site

Maybe you should put those in, this time ;-)
