The 7.3-RELEASE release notes indicate that sysinstall now supports a list
of network interfaces in the netDev (install.cfg) parameter.

After upgrading to 7.3-RELEASE (via csup) sysinstall does not seem to
support that feature.

Also, the man page doesn't contain any mention of the new feature.

Is this the code committed by Rink Springer last October?

This feature would sure be great for our many scripted installs (avoiding
the hassles associated with plugging the cable into the wrong interface or
having the interface type change unexpectedly due to hardware swaps).

Thanks.
