man custom.

Custom can be used from the command line, eg.:

custom -p <product name> -i -z <directory containing VOL files>

should get you started. To determine what to use for <product name> in
the above, extract the list of the contents of the VOL files from
VOL.000.000, which is in cpio format.

Depending on what you are trying to install, you may need to give the
-i option package names.
