It is also a frontend for -.B pkgtool -and many configuration scripts that come with various packages, such as the -scripts which allow you to install LILO, configure your timezone, set your -keyboard fonts, make bootdisks, and many other tasks. -.SH OPTIONS -.TP -.B HELP -Read the -.B setup -help file. -.TP -.B KEYMAP -Change your keyboard map to one of many international and specialized keymaps -available. -.B NOTE: -This change will not become permanent unless you go through the -.B CONFIGURE option. -.TP -.B MAKE TAGS -This allows you to write out custom tagfiles. A -.B tagfile -is a list of package names followed by one of these tags: -.B ADD -(required), -.B SKP -(skip), -.B REC -(recommended) or, -.B OPT -(optional). These allow you to completely automate your software installation. -You can either put these files on the first disk of each disk series -(optionally using a custom 3 character extension), or in a custom location -altogether, such as on a floppy disk in ./a1, ./ap1, ./d1, ..., directories. -The format of a line in a -.B tagfile -is like this: -.LP -package: -.B TAG -.TP -.B SOURCE -Select your source media, such as hard disk, NFS, CD, or floppy. You should -select installation from a directory if your CD or NFS directory has already -been mounted, as it probably is if you're using -.B setup -on your hard drive. -.TP -.B TARGET -Select your target directory. For testing purposes, you may install the -packages to a directory other than '/'. Don't expect them to run from there, -though. -.TP -.B DISK SETS -Select the disk sets you want to install. You can also install custom disk -sets by tagging the -.B CUS -selection. The disk sets must be Slackware-like: they require the diskxxx? -index on each disk, such as diskxyz1 for the first disk of the XYZ series. -On the last disk there must be a file called -.B install.end -to signal the end of the disk series. -.TP -.B INSTALL -Once you've gone through -.B SOURCE -and -.B DISK SETS -( and possibly -.B TARGET -), then you select this choice to go on with the software installation. You'll -be asked what type of tagfiles you want to use and then -.B pkgtool -will be called to install the software. -.TP -.B CONFIGURE -This option runs through several scripts that configure various aspects of your -Linux system. These might include LILO installation, timezone configuration, -and other things. -.TP -.B PKGTOOL -This option calls the -.B pkgtool(8) -utility for you. -.TP -.B EXIT -Exit the -.B setup -program. -.SH AUTHOR -Patrick J.
