+ <li>The sparc install script has two flaws that make the kernel copy
+         and the bootblock install fail. The kernel copy only fails
+         then installing from CD-ROM. To workaround this use the
+         following sequence of commands before starting the install
+         script. This must be done each time the install kernel is
+         booted if the install script is to be run and the CD-ROM is
+         the media to install from. Do the following at the shell
+         prompt:
+         if you install from CD-ROM do the following:
+ <pre><b>#</b> ed install.md
+ /\/bsd/s//\/mnt2\/2.1\/sparc\/bsd/
+ wq
+ <b>#</b>
+ </pre>
+         ... or if you plan to use the bsd.scsi3 kernel you should use instead:
+ <pre><b>#</b> ed install.md
+ /\/bsd/s//\/mnt2\/2.1\/sparc\/bsd.scsi3/
+ wq
+ <b>#</b>
+ </pre>
+         The following one you'll have to do always (not only then
+         installing from from CD-ROM)
+ <pre><b>#</b> ed /usr/mdec/binstall
+ /getopt/,/getopt/+4d
+ wq
+ <b>#</b>
+ </pre>
