aa033a1d78 Move the real kernel onto the cpio.flp and read this from the boot.flp
make debug handling with serial console obnoxious, but present.

b9ecc1ed61 Make sure a partition we're about to mount on will always exist on the
user's system.  Make Mkdir() selectively not die in case of failure.

540bb26ac5 Rethink the cpio floppy verify a little. Don't use a magic cookie,
check for bininst instead (see comments in release/Makefile).

c1b05c7986 1. Add check to see if CPIO floppy extracted properly.
2. See if swapon() failed and at least print a diagnostic.
3. Use -1 instead of strheight()/strwidth() everywhere.

0782333682 Get stage0 and stage5 working.
Try to reformat this code to be a little more human.  Weird europeans
have been writing this, and can't even seem to agree a single coding
style for more than 4 consecutive lines! :-)

aa7d974a35 Fixed to make sysinstall work again. Notable changes:
Removed a dialog_clear() which somebody aimlessly had slammed into TellEm()
in absence of any understanding of the structure of this program. :-(

Skip through stage0 for now.

Make write_bootblocks write the disklabel using the kernel-call, and forget
about the boot-blocks for now.  This is wrong, but I havn't found the real
problem yet.  I will continue work on this problem.

Added a Debug-feature.  There is a printf' like Debug() now which sends its
output to ttyv1 (Alt-F2), and all "discarded output" from sub-processes end
up there too.  Made TellEm() put it's messages there also, so that we can
see where what happens.

Set the PATH for the shell we shouldn't start at the end :-)

set "npartitions" after the disklabel-editor returns, so that we actually
can edit all the 8 parts of the label.
