Controls whether files for all architectures are installed. This
preference applies during diskless share-tree or client-tree
installations, and can only be set with the -C command-line option.

both transient expert
Busy file space checking
Controls whether busy files (those which are currently accessed by
executing processes) are considered during the pre-installation space
check. If busy files are removed or overwritten during the

Clear the "more?" prompt
Controls the way in which
some prompts are displayed. Certain operations use
"throw away" prompts that are usually cleared by
backspacing, then overwriten with spaces. For
terminals that can't clear prompts in this way,
it is more appropriate to just move to the next
line. Set clearprompt "off" to use the simple case.
It is "on" by default and saved from session to session.
--

the "list" or "step" commands.
--
diskless
choice
none,share,client

(non-diskless) tree, a diskless share tree, or a diskless client tree.
--
detailspacecheck
boolean
off
both permanent
Detailed space checking
Controls the data used for disk space calculations. If "detailspacecheck"
is "on", size and type of every file installed on the system via inst is
obtained by stat-ing the file on the disk. If "detailspacecheck" is
"off", the state of every file is assumed to be the same as that saved in
the history database and that information is used to make the disk space
calculations. "detailspacecheck" is slower, but more accurate.
