Installing Packages..

I remember I have installed packages in the past, using older versions of PfSense, but now with 1 beta 4 I am unable to find anything on the GUI that relates to packages.. am I just horrible at finding things, or has the functionality been removed this beta?

It's at system>packagemanager and only shows up for full installed versions. It's not present running the livecd nor at embedded platforms.

wow.. i just realised that I forgot to install pfsense on my HD, and I was running it off livecd for the past two weeks lol, thanks tho

update: Okay I have it installed on my HD now. I'm looking at packages, but the list is limited.. how do I install lighttpd? I don't see a package upload either. I ssh'd in and did pkg_add -r http://pfsense.org/packages/All/lighttpd-1.4.11.tbz ala freebsd, and it installed fine, but there's no gui element installed.

Lighttpd alredy installed - this system package - WebGUI worked in them

type pkg_info - you see all installed FreeBSD packages. But this not some WebGui packages list. InWebGUI you can see users packages and can't see system packages.
