In the installer, you can start a mini-shell, then cd to some directory,
type "install" and select the files you want to install from. Then boot
MacBSD and move the stuff you want to its correct destination.
"etc" comes as a separate tarball, so you can update "base" without
nuking your configuration.

Best wishes,

             Nico
