Probably the easiest way is through the pkg_manager that is built
into `/stand/sysinstall', from the main menu go to configure and
use the link to installing packages.

While your there you'll be able to set your Date/Time as well ;-)

The other is to establish the installation media that you used and
type `pkg_add "path_to_package_you_want_to_add/package.tgz"'
See `man 1 pkg_add' for more details.
