1. AUTOINST automatically streams the installation jobs that complete the installation of most products. The following progress messages are displayed:
  Begin processing installation files. Processing n installation files. . . . * the number of dots equals n *
  The message may indicate zero installation files. This only means that the products you are installing do not require an installation file. AUTOINST continues with the product installation.
2. When all installation jobs are complete, the following message displays:
  All product installation jobs have been streamed successfully.
3. When AUTOINST successfully completes its processing, an END OF PROGRAM message displays.
  In addition to streaming installation jobs, AUTOINST removes temporary files that were used during earlier phases of the process.
Dismount the CSLT.
