It allows the user to install, remove, or view -software packages through an interactive -system. Pkgtool can also be used to re-run the menu-driven scripts normally -executed at the end of a Slackware installation. This is useful for doing -basic reconfiguration (like changing the mouse type). -.SH OPTIONS -Most users will not want to use any options when running -.B pkgtool. -These are generally used only when -.B pkgtool -is run during the initial system installation. -Feel free to try them, but be careful. -.TP -.B \--sets #A#B#C# -Install the disk sets A, B, C. Seperate the disk set names by '#' symbols. -.TP -.B \--source_mounted -When this flag is present, -.B pkgtool -will not attempt to unmount and remount the source device with each disk. -.TP -.B \--ignore_tagfiles -When this flag is present, -.B pkgtool -will install every package encountered no matter what the tagfiles say. -.TP -.B \--tagfile tagfile -This flag is used to specify from the command line which tagfile should be -used for the installation. -.TP -.B \--source_dir directory -Used when installing multiple packages from disk sets. This is the directory -in which the subdirectories for each disk are found. This isn't used when -installing from floppy. -.TP -.B \--target_dir directory -The directory where the target root directory is located. This is '/' when -installing on the hard drive, or typically '/mnt' when installing from an -install disk. -.TP -.B \--source_device device -The source device to install from. This is not used if you've provided the -.B \--source_mounted -flag. It's usually used when installing from floppy, as in: - \--source_device /dev/fd0u1440 -or - \--source_device /dev/fd1h1200. -.SH AUTHOR -Patrick J.
