+      Once you provide information for an additional repository, the
+      installer reads the package metadata over the network.  Software
+      that is specially marked is then included in the package group
+      selection system.  See <xref linkend="sn-package-selection"/> for
+      more information on selecting packages.

+	If you choose <guilabel>Back</guilabel> from the package
+	selection screen, any extra repository data you may have entered
+	is lost.  This allows you to effectively cancel extra
+	repositories.  Currently there is no way to cancel only a single
+	repository once entered.
