How do I add a package on a disk?
To add a package named '/tmp/myapp.pkg' do the following:
      cd /tmp
      pkgadd -d `pwd`/myapp.pkg
It is preferable to add a package utilizing the `pwd` command, because we find ourselves deep in a directory tree sometimes, and it is easier to let the shell complete that path name rather than type 

 pkgadd -d /mnt/apps/uw7/olss/squid/squid2.2/squid-2.2STABLE2.pkg

 custom (OpenServer 6)  The files are usually VOL.xxx.xxx and are usually placed in /tmp.
