>Description:
Can't install NetBSD 3.0 (or 2.1 for that matter), because the sort program is missing from the miniroot.fs image.

When trying to select a disk, it says ...

Available disks are:

sort: not found

Which disk is the root disk ?

And obviously you can't select a disk.

Can someone update the miniroot.fs for atari with sort ?

Thanks.
>How-To-Repeat:
Try and install NetBSD 3.0 with miniroot.fs
>Fix:
update the miniroot.fs with the sort program.

 With a pointer from Ian Hinds. we can do this...

 echo "cat $*" > sort
 chmod +x sort

 and that gets past this problem, but then the installer
 can't find the command "rmel"

 Turns out that this is only a problem with the prepare.fs image.

 miniroot.fs when split into two 720KB disks seems to work fine.

 You also can't symlink any of the programs to sort either, because sort
 isn't built into the instbin program.

 I've added usr/bin/sort and install.sub (which contains the rmel shell
 function) to the prepare fs image.

 Yes, they were already added to miniroot.fs.

 I'll request a pull up for the changes shortly.
