SUMMARY: Automated package installation

I received a whole lot of answers, several of which recommended the
following:

Create an "admin" file containing:

instance=unique
partial=nocheck
runlevel=nocheck
idepend=quit
rdepend=quit
space=quit
setuid=nocheck
conflict=nocheck
action=nocheck
basedir=default

Use pkgadd and specify the admin file using -a <adminfile>

This causes the packages not to prompt on these errors as below.

How do I automate the installation of a package that prompts me with this:

This package contains scripts which will be executed with super-user
permission during the process of installing this package.

Do you want to continue with the installation of <SUNWmdr> [y,n,?]



pkgask doesn't work.

Thanks!
