I am ftp-ing (I think) files from one computer to another and I am using the Put command to do this. Is there a way for me to string these commands together and Put several files at once?
Thanks,
Amy

NAME
sysinst -- install or upgrade a NetBSD system
SYNOPSIS
sysinst [-D] [-f deffile] [-r releasename]

sysinst is a menu-based program that may be used to install or upgrade a NetBSD system. It is usually invoked automatically when the system
is booted from appropriate installation media.
sysinst is usually not present on a NetBSD system that has been fully installed.
OPTIONS
-D Switch on debugging.
-r releasename Set the releasename if it is different to the one compiled. Currently unused.
-f deffile Set a file for definitions other than the defaults. See DEFINITION FILE for its format.
DEFINITION FILE
The definition file is used to set several other names and directories to search for. You can specify any of the options in the file. They
are stored as:
option = value
pairs. In this description, REL and MACH are the release and architecture respectively, determined by the image sysinst is used on.
