       SYNOPSIS
             installpkg

       DESCRIPTION
             The command installpkg is used to install a USL-style UNIX
             system software package.

             You must be logged in as root to install some packages.

             You will be prompted to insert the floppy disk that the
             package resides on.  Everything else is automatic.

             installpkg must be invoked from the console.

             installpkg does not work on packages installed with
