That's the distinction between "a" and "b" on the initial "sysinst"
dialog box:
│ a: Install NetBSD to hard disk │
│ b: Upgrade NetBSD on a hard disk │
│ c: Re-install sets or install additional sets │
"a" overwrites everything, also with the "etc" set, "b" will
run you through merge actions instead.
For the extra X11 sets, the proper choice is ofcourse "c".
