3e6a56bb87 Add an option for resetting and rescanning the probed device list, perhaps
to now detect that CD you just remembered to put in the drive or that
pccard NIC that you've inserted (anybody can put pccardd in an mfsroot image
now you know.. :)

8d8f2bab5a Collapse the "get" code substantially by combining common functions.
Also make mountpoint for each media type easier to change.
Also reshuffled some menus for easier usage.

8055777430 It's easier to go forwards than backwards with this, and the RELENG_2_1_0
sysinstall was already broken (I think there's a PR for this somewhere).
This will require some additional changes elsewhere, like bringing in pw.

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.

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!

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.

bd71bd2513 Don't use some of the low-contrast text attributes I was using before - they

061e2fb9a6 Fix a truly stupid bug which broke the package installation menu
for everything _but_ the multi-user case now (it was the opposite before :-).
That means adding packages with the 2.2-960511-SNAP boot floppy is busted. Feh.

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().

2113a60c4b Bring this into sync.
I still have a _very very annoying_ display bug which occurs when a menu
item causes a submenu to be displayed - the screen repaints for the original
menu (which is restored upon return from the submenu) are off by about 4
characters.  I've tried restoring the screen, the cursor position, you name
it - same deal.  Grrrr!  This commit is my first step in trying to get someone
else to help me look into this one since I'm just tearing my hair out at this
point!

871ef591ef Major enhancements to the package adder (next step is to use the new dialog
functions to make the menus far less klunky, but one thing at a time).

40ae4689df Lots of fixes:
1. Revamp package installer to use new dependency lists and also
   pkg_add's new `read from stdin' mode to prevent a copy of the package
   from hitting the disk unnecessarily.

2. More fixes for running "not as init" - don't get upset if CDROM already
   mounted, do the right thing instead.

3. If running as init, assume first-time install and _don't show the
   (W)rite option in the fdisk screen.

4. Many other little tweaks, some of which will have to wait for fuller testing
   until I can create a boot floppy (testing certain system-destroying
   features of sysinstall can be a royal pain).  Expect some more commits.

b462d27c89 Style changes. Clear the screen before a lot of error dialogs so that they
don't bogusly restore the screen to the message that was the cause of the
abort.  That resulted in lots of weird flickering dialog boxes that appeared
to be displayed out of sequence.

7dace4c581 1. Of course, the day after you roll the snapshots is the day you realize
that the FTP install doesn't deal with timeouts and hasn't since it was
   written.  Fixed.

2. Totally eliminate the OptionFlags.  I only had to work harder to
   sync them with configuration variables, so why not simply always use
   configuration variables?  This has actually greatly simplified areas
   of the code.
