After logging into UNIX as "root" I do a "/stand/sysinstall" command and tell the system that I want to set media. I set the media to the hard drive and then tell the system that I want to install packages, whereupon I am told that the system cannot find /packages/index and that is that. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
