6081c922d2 Prevent user astonishment by providing the shell option at the end, after
any installer-provided configuration files have been copied. This allows
users to edit their fstab, if desired, and to see what the installer has
placed in rc.conf.

22a84ec9b9 Escape the newline so we get a proper line continuation. Without this
the text of the menu selections doesn't get displayed properly and it
makes the installer appear to lock up for no obvious reason.

6d02d4cbc5 Inquire about terminal type if starting from a serial console and do
not configure the host's networking if netbooted [1]. Also fix FTP
installations behind some firewalls [2].

bfc3bab865 Per request of the docs team, install docs as packages, instead of via
the normal distfile mechanism. Thanks to Marc Fonvieille for the patch and
for putting up with me taking entirely too long to commit this!

23724537d0 Rename the "Reboot" option to "Exit", which reflects what it actually
does. The rc.local wrapper script will also soon grow an option to use the
live environment after installation, so an immediate reboot isn't even
necessarily implied.

e45dab861e Committing while tired is never a good idea. Remove an unconditional error

6dcef0cf52 Add mirror selection for FTP installs. To support TBEMD installs
(e.g. powerpc64), this looks in a slightly different default path than now,
specifying both $MACHINE and $MACHINE_ARCH:
MIRROR/pub/FreeBSD/releases/`uname -p`/`uname -m`/`uname -r`

How to handle TBEMD properly probably merits some more discussion, but,
since no such 9.0-CURRENT distfiles exist at the moment, all existing
mirrors presently fail anyway.

well as package descriptions and add code in the installer to check the

addc19a4f4 Add support for optional distributions, installation of the ports tree and
src. Fitting all of this on a single CD along with a full system requires
changing the default compression algorithm from gzip to xz.

2118f3873f Import bsdinstall. This is meant to be (eventually in conjunction with
pc-sysinstall) a replacement for sysinstall in the 9.0 release and beyond.
Currently supported platforms are sparc64, pc98, i386, amd64, powerpc, and
powerpc64. Integration into the build system will occur in the coming
weeks.

Merging with pc-sysinstall will use this code as a frontend, while
temporarily retaining the interactive partition editor here. This work
will be done in parallel with improvements on this code and release
integration.

Thanks to all who have provided testing and comments!
