0c7d5a49b8 Provide a symlink for /bin/sh when the fixit floppy is mounted, so
scripts using #!/bin/sh (like /mnt2/dev/MAKEDEV) will work.

67092981c2 Comment out the setting of PATH in /dev/MAKEDEV on the fixit floppy.
It's entirely useless there.

Observed by:	andreas

Make the pre-existance of /R/stage/dists/compat* non-fatal, so
`make rerelease' won't fall over.

8aa0f39a3c I'm feeling charitable, so I'll save the bloatists some valuable wind:
BLOAT! BLOAT! BLOAT! BLOAT!

Yes, but where else to put these stinking compat distributions.  I, for one,
am bone tired of creating them by hand and then having everyone tell me I left
something out/in.  Now any commiter can adjust the list as necessary, and I
forsee this as being so seldom necessary that I've simply committed the
uuencoded tarballs - these are from the last SNAP, and nobody complained
(for once) about that set.

1473d960a5 1. Take out console setup in options now that Joerg has moved it into
the main menu.
2. Conditionalized a few small things which needed it.
3. Put PC98 X servers in their own menu, there are so many of them now.
4. Rampaged on the menus.c file in general, reformatting and cleaning up.

02f6de2f97 Sysinstall now offers the installation of a keymap early in the game!
Not all mappings are supported, most languages come only with one
encoding since this should be sufficient to get up & running in using
sysinstall, and we are already pretty tight on space.  (My previous
commit has already bumped the boot MFS size by another 50 KB for
this.)

This feature requires the `kbdcontrol -L' i've just committed.  Plain
text keymaps and the entire scanner are overkill for sysinstall.

Also updated the list of available keymaps while i was at it.

84ad04f554 Several improvements to the `fixit' configuration:
. Don't gzip the crunched binary by now; it just fits, and execution is
  a lot faster this way (it's truly demand-paged again).

. Add more(1), ft(8), protocols(5), a stripped down services(5).

. Improve the .profile, and make sysinstall actually use it again.

Still no go for a 4 MB configuration though. :-(

35b3921b16 If mounting the fixit floppy fails in the first place, warn the user
but make a second attempt using MNT_FORCE, just in case it has been
unclean from a previous crash.  That's dangerous, but far better than
keeping the despaired user standing in the rain...

(Experienced admins can still fsck it then, and remount.  Others will
either totally crash, or incidentally succeed, without much further
help possible...)

Btw., mount(2) misses the description of MNT_FORCE for the mount
syscall.
