Primary, profiles are used for building the curses menu which
internally are a bundle of classes. They were not created for general
bundling classes together.

Hey Thomas,

Thanks for the response. No, I definitely don't want the curses menu. I was
hoping that there was a command-line option. I guess I'm confused about the
purpose of the profiles; I thought they were supposed to bundle several
classes together for convenience and clarity. Is that not right?

FAI profiles are only used if the flag menu is used which is normally
not done when doing a dirinstall. Then you will see a curses menu like this:

Do you really want a curses menu like this with a dirinstall?
