b09dc169b7 Separate the siamese twins that were the partition and label editor.
Now you can use one without entering the other and it will DTRT.
These changes just allowed me to do the most straight-forward new disk
installation I've ever managed with sysinstall.

2ce18d2da7 There appears to be no way around linking with DES for the
moment - the compile-time options are useless since the object
files are being used from ppp to build the crunched image, and
the ppp objects include DES at this stage since they were last
built that way to make the secure distribution.  Hmmmm!

86ff624834 Make some changes to the way the label editor reads script variables
so you don't need to re-enter it for each and every filesystem. Heads up!
This change is incompatible with the previous scripting format,
so those folks (all 2 of you) using config files should take a look
at the changes to the sample install.cfg file for the diskLabelEditor's
new calling syntax.

Finally write a man page for this thing, documenting all of the above
and more.  I can't drive a stake through this thing's heart without
properly documenting it first, so please consider this step #1 in that
process (to be honest, sysinstall will also live on for some time in
the 2.2. branch since it's unlikely that the new install tools will ever
make it over there - they're strictly 3.0 material).

5028762fea Eliminate Samba configuration. Sorry, but this was another one of
those ideas that, like the Apache server setup, was well-intentioned
but doomed to fail in the face of change.  That and the fact that it
shouldn't be part of the installation tool, it should be part of the
post-installation setup tool (which we need to write).  Combining the
two utilities into one utility was my first conceptual mistake.

Apologies also to Coranth Gryphon, who worked hard on the Apache
and Samba server setup code.  These features were quite useful
for awhile, if that's any consolation, I just simply had the wrong
ideas about where to put them. :-(

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.

5214787fd5 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).

898f607a63 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.
