dfb96779aa It's easier to go forwards than backwards with this, and the RELENG_2_1_0 
sysinstall was already broken (I think there's a PR for this somewhere).
This will require some additional changes elsewhere, like bringing in pw.

bb14af0d7e I need to learn to read man pages more closely. readlink() does NOT null 
append the return string (bleah!) so you need to do it yourself.  This
explains why Bus and PS/2 meece weren't displayed in the Mouse selection
menu.

e83d4097d2 OK, I've got two ideas to file in the "really seemed like a good idea 
at the time, but on further reflection..." bucket with these changes.

1. Checking the media before frobbing the disks was a fine idea, and
   I wish it could have worked, but that leads to a rather difficult
   situation when you need to mount the media someplace and you're about
   to:

	a) Chroot away from your present root.
	b) Newfs the root to be.

   You're basically screwed since there's no place to stick the mount
   point where it will be found following the newfs/chroot (and eliminating
   the chroot in favor of just using the "root bias" feature would work
   great for the distributions but not the pkg_add calls done by the
   package installer).

2. Automatic timeout handling.  I don't know why, but alarm() frequently
   returns no residual even when the alarm didn't go off, which defies
   the man page but hey, since when was that so unusual?  Take out timeouts
   but retain the code which temporarily replaces the SIGINT handler in
   favor of a more media-specific handler.  This way, at least, if it's hanging
   you can at least whap it.  I think the timeout code would have been losing
   over *really slow* links anyway, so it's probably best that it go.

This should fix NFS, tape & CDROM installs again (serves me right for getting
complacent and using just the FTP installs in my testing).

0fb36a0fa1 This is a patch that makes some of the "partitions" --> "slice" to be 
more consistant in our use of the terms for differentiation between PC
partitions and traditional BSD partitions.

8b6b5dddd6 Argh! Moving the media initialization to before the disk scribbling 
section was a good thing, since it made it possible to detect media problems
*before* the installation started, but it also caused various things to
be mounted BEFORE the chroot() call, which definitely messes things up.

Fix this by detecting the pre-chroot() case and mounting into a subdir.

ee019a53dc Sweep through the tree fixing mmap() usage: 
- Use MAP_FAILED instead of the constant -1 to indicate
    failure (required by POSIX).
  - Removed flag arguments of '0' (required by POSIX).
  - Fixed code which expected an error return of 0.
  - Fixed code which thought any address with the high bit set
    was an error.
  - Check for failure where no checks were present.
