00cbe91b26 Damn - looks like upgrade got broken along the way and it's not something
I usually test, so... :-(  Guess we'll have to slide the tag forward on
these two files - Peter, could you do the honors?  I've been up for the last
30 hours or so and I just *know* that any attempt on my part to do this would
probably end up deleting the entire repository somehow. :-)

d0e8e4a2c5 Back out my change for Peter which did transfer timings based on current
chunk rather than distribution - it's just caused the numbers to fluctuate
too wildly, sorry Peter! ;-(

225af85c05 Remove some suspect sector size calculations which are also the source
of some confusing messages from newfs (just judging by the number of people
who point them out, anyway).

f3f9c53d3c Fix something I broke with CDROM installation (well, I knew my first
test CD would turn at least one bug up :-).

26a30b6eb7 Take compat dists out of the canned set - they seem to do more harm
than good, actually, and those who actually need them can select them.

74b3877fe8 A number of improvements in the way statistics are printed, add a "chroot"
option for installing distributions and/or packages to somewhere other than /,
say for a case where you're installing to an external disk on some other
machine's behalf.  More miscellaneous fixes to various problems I stumbled
across while adding this stuff.

68e945601d Don't freak out at the lack of root/swap/usr if we're running multiuser

7315939135 Whoops! Now that I'm decompressing docs into /tmp, it's important to
make sure that /tmp is there first! :-)  While I'm at it, clean up the
somewhat inexplicably bogus Mkdir() function.
