What's the best way to setup the repository of files from 5.4-RELEASE for NFS installation purposes? In earlier releases, because we usually had CDs/ISOs laying around, we'd simply dump the entirety of -disc1 onto the NFS server's exported filesystem and the right thing happened during installs. With 5.4, I dumped -disc1 onto the NFS server, but was prompted for the next disc to get perl package(s?). So I dumped -disc2 into the same place on the NFS server, but sysinstall continued to prompt for the next disc on subsequent attempts. I'm thinking I must not be getting (parts of?) -disc2 into the right place, and/or need to update a table-of-contents file, or something equally simple. Hints appreciated.
