How to create a INDEX file for pkg_add Date: 18 Feb 1997 19:33:56 GMT Organization: Schmit Prototypes Inc. Lines: 12 Message-ID: <01bc1dd3$4a7ad480$a3ca86d0@acad-13> NNTP-Posting-Host: pm1-163.discover-net.net X-Newsreader: Microsoft Internet News 4.70.1155 Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:35700 I have installed FreeBSD 2.1.6 and need some assistance in setting up a directory structure and INDEX file for package installs from my /usr file system (/usr/tmp/packages/.....). The combinations of paths etc... in my hacked INDEX file have not worked. When using sysconfig and setting the media path I can get the packages recognized but install fails to find the source .tgz file. Thank you in advance Stephen Hilton schmit@discover-net.net
