Andre correctly reminded me that 'ssh' installer support is not intended
as a replacement for a telnet install.  Rather, it is a means for
enabling 'ssh' to remotely monitor install progress.  Translation, you
can ssh into the installing system and monitor /tmp/*log or do whatever
else you want from a shell.  Essentially, it provides the shell you
normally get on tty2, but over the network.

James
