INSTALLPKG(1)  —  Stardent Computer Inc.

NAME

installpkg − install all software distribution tapes

SYNOPSIS

/etc/installpkg

DESCRIPTION

installpkg spools forward to the second file on the distribution tape, copies this file from tape to /tmp/do_install, executes /tmp/do_install, and finally rewinds the tape.

If the environment variable $DEBUG_INSTALLPKG is set to debug, an editing session is opened on the specific installation script on the tape being read prior to execution.
