Unfortunately, in sysinstall at least, both a menu option _and_ the OK 
"button" are both highlighted making it unclear where the focus is. I 
got bitten by that a couple of weeks ago doing an FTP install; I hit 
ENTER, nothing happened, then I realized, hit TAB ENTER and carried on. 
Came back an hour later to find it merrily installing XFree86 which I 
didn't want - I guess XFree86 was highlighted the first time I hit ENTER 
and I didn't notice that it had been checked (I alway use SPACE for 
selecting/deselecting options).
