3cce01a416 1. Engage brain. 2. Write macro. Previous commit attempted to perform 
2 before 1.

50aaa93770 make note of which /etc files need upgrading in installUpgrade rather 
than asking the user to keep track of the list himself.

833e0176e3 Increase the size of the vector that is allocated for execv(). Jordan 
apparently forgot this when adding the password feature.

c352737c78 To use the dosio library fully, I also (duh!) have to retain full 
use of stdio, I can't just go handing fileno(fp) around and expect
that to work.  Since this means I need to have sysinstall play pipeline
on single file distributions now, that means I can also finally add a
progress indicator for them.

Change installation instructions to note that there's no dists directory
anymore on CDROMs.

d17f0c47d4 Fix some very minor cosmetic cruft I couldn't help tweaking when 
I went over the code.

Add shortcuts for addUser and addGroup, documenting same.

Add a password field for adduser and use no-echo string field for it.
This requires my latest libdialog changes (in RELENG_2_2 or -current) to work.

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!

c381383f32 Update to benefit from David's recent changes to pw(8). The most 
obvious effects are that most of the automagically chosen defaults
will now be displayed while going through the menu, and an improved
error handling thanks to the more detailed error status reporting.

2.2 fodder, but i'll leave it to Jordan's review.

00b69db338 As Paul has just pointed out, much of my strncpy() usage was either 
bogus or overly complex and really needed to be done more consistently
and sanely throughout - no question about it.  Done.

325403f959 Add Joerg's user management screen for David Nugent's pw(8) program, something 
which will also need to be brought in before this screen will work.

Add some commentary about how the slip startup code is bogus.

Steal Joerg's loop for more properly closing all files and graft it into
the EHS startup.  My loop was functional but more bogus.

ba5555f0e6 Several areas of improvement: 
o Incorporate some of Tatsumi's bug fixes.
	o Remove the xperimnt and commerce distribution items; they haven't
	  been actual distributions for awhile.
	o Try to sanitize the device checking code a little more.
	o Cosmetic work on the network code.
