with the diff/CVS hassles - this represents far too many CVS commit
messages for you folks, and trying to document each and every iteration
of the code is a hassle (and not very useful at that).
Don't notify in vsystem() - it obscures the original message.
Put some debugging code into cpio_extract() so that I can see
why it doesn't work now. :(
implementation.
2. Totally rework device registration. It's about half the size and
more powerful now.
3. Add DOS discovery.
4. Start filling in some of the strategy routines.
5. Another clean-up pass over the menus.
6. Make wizard code use Disk typedef.
If I can get the first strategy routine finished tonite, we should have a working
install (from ftp, at least) this weekend.
as per Andrey's letter. Make a few modifications for correctness.
2. Add Language menu back to first menu - it was too buried in the
Options menu.
3. Add size information to all distributions.
4. Add a compat20 distribution (we need to make one of these!! Any takers? Please?)

syscons (and/or cons25) at all. This code looked just fine running
on an xterm, but on a console the attributes are all wrong. I
now have to sacrifice some screen real-estate to pring cheesy
`-' characters to accomplish the same thing.
broken in syscons, or at least in the cons25 termcap entry! :-( A_BOLD
won't show up on monochrome adapters (I don't think) but they'd be screwed
anyway since I don't have an attribute to use for them now at all.
2. Don't use russian screenmap - apparently not necessary with right font.
3. Dequote bogusly quoted font name in english language setting.
4. Use setterm() and hack around an undesirable side-effect (cbreak is unset).
5. be smarter about setting OnVTY, and use it in cases where it makes sense.

won't know until Poul wakes up again).
2. Make vsystem() put its output on the debugging fd.
3. DTRT with root filesystem placement - now I see how this has to work
(thanks, Poul).
4. Many miscellaneous spelling errors fixed and general cleanup.
It remains to be seen how successfully. The distribution loading code
is still not here yet, but the partition/newfs/mount/cpio-extract cycle
is as complete as it's ever going to get, modulo possible bug fixes.
The TCP/IP setup screen is also sort of here, albeit in a highly-changing
state due to the fact that per-interface information isn't being kept
right now but is being added (thanks, Gary!).
