To: isar-users; +Cc: Badrikesh Prusty
* Add lockfile `/tmp/installer.lock` to prevent simultaneous unattended
installs across multiple consoles.
* Add progress monitoring for installations started in another console
via progress pipe.
* Periodically check if bmaptool is still running when progress pipe is
unavailable and continue once bmaptool completes.
This resolves the race condition between consoles and prevents issues
with long-running or partially completed installations.
