`bsdinstall script` uses split(1) to split the installation script
into a preamble - containing options - and an optional setup script
called `installscript`.
In case the setup script contains a script header ("shebang") after
the initial one, the installation script is split multiple times,
ignoring anything from that point in the file when creating
`installscript`.
Example:
RELEASE="14.0"
...
#!/bin/sh
echo "Populate rc.local"
cat >/etc/rc.local<<EOF
#!/bin/sh
echo booted | logger -s -t 'example'
EOF
echo "Shutdown"
shutdown -p now
This results in three files:
- bsdinstall-installscript-aa: preamble
- bsdinstall-installscript-ab: setup script only containing three lines
(ending on `cat >/etc/rc.local<<EOF`)
- bsdinstall-installscript-ac: remainder of the install script, which
is never executed (and if it would, it would do the wrong thing).
Unfortunately, the split command doesn't support a "max files" option
(which would be a nice addition and an easy fix, think `split -m2`).
This patch aims to correct this by replacing split with awk (and
adding some more fixes).
