>Description:
	sysinst currently tells the user to manually run a command under
	the OpenFirmware shell to properly set up unattended hard disk
	booting.  This command asks him to change the 'boot-device'
	variable.

	Ideally sysinst could set 'boot-device' on its own to get things
	working automatically.  It should also set 'boot-command' and,
	maybe (but probably not) 'auto-boot?'.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Not applicable.

>Fix:
	Haven't had the time to do this.  I'm filing this as a to-do
	remainder so that the idea is not lost.
