>Description:
When installing from floppies in 5.x, if the media is CD/DVD, at
commit time it will complain that it cannot mount the CD/DVD cuz
there's no /dist
>How-To-Repeat:
Make kern.flp, mfsroot.flp and ISO from current
Boot the floppies
Configure an installation with CD/DVD as media
Commit
>Fix:
In src/release/Makefile
line 669: mkdir -p etc/defaults dev mnt stand/etc/defaults stand/help
Add dist so to make it:
line 669: mkdir -p etc/defaults dev mnt stand/etc/defaults stand/help dist
