nium®-based systems, are found in instl_combine(1M).
WARNINGS
If make_medialif is being used to create an image to install an archive, it is imperative that there be
consistency between the release of the archive (B.11.23 for example), the release specified in the configura-
tion file(s) (a line that reads release=B.11.23), and the version of SYSCMDS selected by the -r
option (-r B.11.23)ofmake_medialif. Failure to provide this consistency will lead to problems
with the installation of the archive on the client, problems when booting the installed client, or other similar
catastrophic and unrecoverable problems.
