   Two comments:

   This file is kept under RCS; use $Header$ if you want the
pathname, not a comment.

    Similarly, we're using version control; these lines should be
removed if they're not needed, not just commented out.

    I don't know offhand if /mnt/source is still mounted at the time
this is run.  If you fix the two stylistic nits I've noted, I'd be happy
to apply this patch to the afs copy of the installer for you to test,
though.
