The install is working now. For the record, the problem was
that install2.sh in sunburn's miniroot had this code in it:
case `uname -m` in
sun4u)
for i in `cat /util/install-local-u`
do echo $i; cat /util/yes-file | pkgadd -R /root -d /tmp/cdrom $i ; done
2>>$pkglog
[snip]
but the file /util/install-local-u didn't exist, so only the symlink
packages were getting installed. I fixed this to refer to
/tmp/cdrom/install-local-u and the install worked.
The reason you were left with the shell prompt was because install2.sh
also had a "/sbin/sh" in it after the OS installation, because miki had
been working on the stat files for the os verification stuff for 9.0.
I pulled this out, too.
