            Bug ID: 266987
           Summary: bsdinstall: following multiple 'restart's,
                    distributions are installed several times
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
               URL: https://anduin.net/~ltning/bsdinstall-oops.jpg
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: ltning-freebsd@anduin.net

When bsdinstall-ing a new system I ran into partitioning confusion, so I had to
restart the installer several times. This was done by selecting "restart" when
the installer offered the "restart" or "exit" prompt.

For each restart, I had to re-select the distributions I wanted (the choices
were not persisted, which may be relevant here). Once I finally had the
partitioning in place, and proceeded to install, all chosen distribution files
were installed multiple times - once for each restart (presumably).
