{selected subset list - all mandatory & optional in this example}
.

.
Are these the subsets that should be loaded (y/n) ?
If you enter y, the ris utility loads the subsets. If you enter n,
the list of subsets is displayed again and you can restart your
selection process.
When you confirm your selections, the ris utility extracts the
subsets and displays the name of the new RIS environment.
If you are installing a product that is not part of the base operating system
in the RIS environment, the ris utility tries to determine the system
architecture. If it cannot, you see a prompt similar to the following example:
Choose the architecture of the clients that the environment
will serve:
1) alpha
2) custom
3) mips
Enter your choice: 1
The new environment is in /usr/var/adm/ris/ris0.alpha.
After you set up the RIS areas and register clients in those areas, the clients
can access the areas they need. See Chapter 6 for a discussion of client
registration.
