We had someone copy ksh over /bin/sh on a 3B2 on which I was trying to install
Starlan. The sysadm command uses /bin/sh to process the install script
and the one for Starlan definitely needs it. Using /bin/ksh caused it to
look like it installed correctly but Starlan never worked. It took
the better part of a week before we tracked down the problem. I got real
good at loading floppies however (11 in the set) :-)
