>Description:
The /targetroot/etc/resolv.conf does not exist so can't
run pkg_add in the chroot to install pkgin.

My workaround was to suspend sysinst and copy it.

 Can you provide the install steps you took (and the method used for 
 install) prior to encountering this problem?  I haven't encountered it 
 in my usage, so I want to make sure I'm testing the correct path.

 I hit this problem multiple times.

 I just followed common steps.  The networking was previously enabled 
 because it retrieved sets over the network which I think used 
 /etc/resolv.conf and not /targetroot/etc/resolv.conf.

 Sorry I didn't provide the steps yet.
