What if you did something like portinstall does, and list all the paths
that the .inf and .sys coexists and have you answer no or yes to that
path?

root at ns1# portinstall jakarta-tomcat
--->  Found 4 ports matching 'jakarta-tomcat':
        www/jakarta-tomcat3
        www/jakarta-tomcat4
        www/jakarta-tomcat41
        www/jakarta-tomcat5
Install 'www/jakarta-tomcat3'? [yes]

Thoughts?  I'm not sure if it would be easier to write the code to
search the disk, or write the code to take the input and check to make
sure the path exists and error out if it doesn't, etc etc :).
