Hi, understand that there are options to select xbase, game etcs during OpenBSD installation. Can I install these options, (particularly X) post-install same as the standard install, and not for Ports or other methods? I would not want to re-install the system unless necessary. Appreciate any

Since X is just contained in a .tgz file, just mount the CD (or whatever other install media you used) and do something like: $su #cd / #tar -zxvf /path/to/install/sets/x* #exit $startx Don't forget the 'p' flag in there, when dealing with install sets: tar zxvpf /path/to/install/sets/x*
