Packages different in install than guide

So this is probably a pretty simple question, but: when I go to install, the packages available for selection are much different from those in the Beginner's Guide. Instead of BASE, SUPPORT, DEVEL and LIB as categories, there's only base-devel; is that what should be selected? Then, there's no select all option, and really, I think that'd probably be most helpful, because I don't need the space they'd take up, and I don't really know what I'm doing yet. Plus, I installed Arch without wireless tools already, so I'm wary. Thanks.

Probably because the beginner's guide has not been updated for the overlord release yet. It still gets you where you need to go though.
