46e907099b Brain-o. BUILNAME is more important, RELEASETAG ain't even mandatory 
at all (so protect it with .if defined).

37ca025a35 Properly export RELEASETAG and NO_PORTS (if set) into the chrooted 
make process via /mk.

2.2 candidate but i'll defer this for an hour until my test buld
proved that it works.  This should just fit Jordan's deadline. ;-)

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.

d733b8a9fb I need to learn to read man pages more closely. readlink() does NOT null

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.

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. :)

3b9b7e6177 Now that I know which parts of the installation really need it (since 
there's no menu display bug to work around now), be far more selective
in my use of DITEM_RECREATE (which is slow and involves much screen I/O).

8abdc2eb40 Sweep through the tree fixing mmap() usage: 
- Use MAP_FAILED instead of the constant -1 to indicate
    failure (required by POSIX).
  - Removed flag arguments of '0' (required by POSIX).
  - Fixed code which expected an error return of 0.
  - Fixed code which thought any address with the high bit set
    was an error.
  - Check for failure where no checks were present.

434a0eeb38 1. Correct bogon in cdromInit when running multi-user which took cdrom offline 
if wrong version.
2. Make sure network device is initialized in ftpInit
3. Eliminate bogus size values in the menus.  For now, we'll have to admit
   that nobody's added it up yet.  In the future, these menus should be
   build dynamically anyway, not declared static.
4. Add more debugging to networking code to chase the mystery ppp device
   problem.
