8e45ec2c8c Resurrect / implement some of the more esoteric scripting features,
such as partitioning a disk or overriding an interactive prompt.

46da72bdf7 Change handling of bad signals; there are reasons why this is actually
not such a great idea.

e33c24a2d2 Read /etc/resolv.conf information as well as /etc/sysconfig info, making
this a little more robust.

c5566bcff7 o Try to be more aggressive about reading in old configuration data
so that we're more useful in multi-user mode.  This is still not
  100%, but it pulls in a lot more than it used to.  Some of the "composite"
  variables in /etc/sysconfig are going to take more work.

o Always write /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts if it makes sense to do
  so.

o Reset media properly when reselecting.  Longstanding bogon.

o Pull SIGPIPE handling out of package.c; I'm actually hoping to handle
  this differently shortly.

o Fix bug where cancel in TCP setup dialog still checked data fields.
  I think this closes a PR, but I will have to go look.

740e9a8981 Implement compiled-in config file handling a little better - now
that there's no filesystem on the boot.flp image we need to prompt
for the configuration floppy.

45680321c0 Pass LOAD_CONFIG_FILE variable through, if set (makes Paul Traina's life
easier).  Only run install.cfg if running as init.  It's something of
a security hole otherwise. :)

37c16c5340 Clean up a long-standing bug in the scripting code. You could set variables,
but you couldn't call functions!  Now you can do both.
Guard against whitespace pollution in variable names.

1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

e5b09b7d10 Do something I've wanted to do for quite some time - collapse all the
common layout code into some work functions and make all the layout-using
routine adopt them.  Also reorganize includes and generally clean up.

86767547be Be more efficient in how we use memory (stumbled across while looking for
something else) for attributes and variables.

0fd6d431cf Do a few things I've been threatening to do for a long time:
1. Don't use the MSDOSFS code for accessing FreeBSD distribution data.
   Use Robert Nordier's stand-alone DOS I/O library for the purpose.
   It this works as well as Robert says it does, it should drastically reduce
   (or even eliminate) our "I can't install from my DOS partition!" calls.

2. As a result of the above, go to stdio file descriptors for all
   media types.

3. Taking advantage of #2, start using libftpio for FTP transfers instead
   of maintaining our own parallel version of the FTP transfer code.
   Yay!  I ripped something out for a change!

5319e113eb If /install.cfg exists on the local floppy (or if LOAD_CONFIG_FILE is defined
and the user inserts a floppy), read the config file to pre-define variables
for a custom installation.

[Note: I fixed one bug in LOAD_CONFIG_FILE code, but it's still not perfect.]

based on whether or not they're actually installed.

16185b823a Fix some long-standing malloc bugs in the package handling code (freeing garbage
in one place, leaking memory in another).

Add a facility to invoke subsystems directly by naming them on
sysinstall's command-line when running post-install.  A replacement
for pkg_manage might, for example, be `/stand/sysinstall configPackages'

Fix bogon where upgrade shell was entered with tty modes spammed.

Fix bug with release name checking in ftp_strat.  Turned a bunch of
bogus exit()s into proper calls to systemShutdown().

af4cbec4e1 1. Update all the copyrights to delete useless clauses 3 and 4.
2. Change more of the menu code over to new system.
3. Streamline label editor.

957bdf511e Major surgery.
1. Use new dialog menu hacks (no strings, just arrays of dialogMenuItem structs)
   so that I can create composite menus with radio/checkbox/... items in them,
   removing some long-standing UI bogons in various menus.  This work isn't
   finished yet, but will be done in two phases.  This is phase one.

2. Remove all the script installation stuff.  I never got time to document it,
   it was arcane and it just complicated much of the code.  There are better
   ways of doing this if I want to do auto-driven installations later.

3. Remove much dead code and otherwise attempt to remove as much historical
   grot as possible so that this code is easier to hack on.  This is also
   a two-stage process, phase one of which is now complete.

5326bef3de This mega-commit brings in Jordan's latest sysinstall version..
This looks like it was developed offline, and is being spammed over the
top of the existing.  "That's fine by me!  I dont really care how you do
it, just get it in there..." said Jordan in a conversation a short while
ago...

a098749d6b Bring everybody up to date on my morning's work.
1. Fix a few bugs in the ftp installation code and implement proper
   ftp and network shutdown routines.

2. Clean up the menus a fair bit - add a FreeBSD configuration menu.

3. Eliminate the last of the "chaining" - the installation now does
   the most obvious thing in the most obvious cases and doesn't present
   you with more menus than you were expecting.  This makes it necessary to be
   a little more explicit in places, but it's still less confusing.

4. Add a few more safety nets for the user.  Change a few hard-and-fast
   limits to warnings (it now runs as non-root, Bruce).

5. Add descriptions for all the supported ethernet cards.

6. Make the cpio floppy extract put up a menu requesting the drive you wish
   to use if you have more than one; don't just always assume drive A.

d0eeafc570 Commit my latest so that Gary can sync up - this version should also
be the grounds for our first round of testing in the release I'm rolling.
It doesn't load the distributions yet, but it should do everything else.

b2d228d3d7 This will now compile and even scribble helpfully on your disks.
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!).

4e278bdb76 Here is my first "framework" commit of the new sysinstall. There is a LOT
more to come in the next 24 hours, this is just the first stable result of
8 hours of hacking so far.  The specification format for menus is pretty
much hammered out and the beginnings (very humble) of the doc hierarchy
are present for an example.  It should be quite easy to add a lot more
menus quickly to this since I did go somewhat out of my way to make the
framework easy to work with.  This is NOT the glorious semi-graphical
sysinstall (or whatever its name will be) that the install-geeks are working
on, this is simply the "son of sysinstall" I've been promising to write in
the interim for 2.0.5 and 2.1R (super install doesn't come until 2.2R).
