This looks ok as long as the rest of the script isn't taking the
install root into account.  If it is, then this could potentially
break in a jumpstart.  I'm not sure that this CAS is suited to a
jumpstart install anyway though...?  (I don't have and have never used
jumpstart, nor do I have any idea how widely used it is.)
