I haven't looked at the code as I could solved it using diskwait the way it was intended. I think however to use an USB-stick with the packages as the old system I use has an USB (1.1) interface. However it's not that modern that you can boot from it so I have to do something with first installing th USB-drivers and LINUXRC from floppy and then loading the packages from /dev/usb0.When it works like I want I will mention it to the list as another method to install a leaf firewall..
