CVS commit: src/distrib



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   abs
Date:           Sun Feb 12 19:27:21 UTC 2023

Modified Files:
        src/distrib/evbarm/installimage: install.sh
        src/distrib/sparc64/cdroms/installcd: install.sh
        src/distrib/vax/cdroms/installcd: install.sh

Log Message:
Enable basic command line editing in evbarm, sparc64 and vax installer shells

(Following the pattern in amd64)

When a user selects "exit installer" or hits ^Z in sysinst, the
calling install.sh runs a shell, plus shows a message indicating
they can type "exit" to return to the installer.

Add -E to the arguments to this shell, to enable command line editing,
(primarily for arrow keys, but basic emacs sequences will also work)

With the change of all the install.sh scripts in amd64, evbarm,
i386, sparc64 and vax are identical apart from NetBSD RCD tags and
the sysctl -nx kern.consdev check (some of the latter are definitely
either wrong, or have an incorrect comment attached. Will return
to later)
