Run sysinst, then "Utilities" , then "Logging functions", then 
"Logging" on, then
"Scripting" On",  this will produce a files sysinst.log and sysinst.sh

I don't know how useful sysinst.sh is -- if it's complete, as  some of 
the shell looks wrong to me. Looks likes it's trying multiple test 
against $? (2nd reference to $? would in-fact be test ( [ )  -- so, 
judging from the file, so I'm assuming it's not complete.  However some 
files (disktab, fstab,rc.conf ) are in sysinst.sh as "here text", so 
could be useful just for that -- you'll need to copy them off ramdisk 
manually, or they're gone.
