5b8015dad2 o Search much more aggressively for distributions in all extraction
methods.  This should make the process rather more robust in the face
  of entropy.
o Let tape cpio extract guess type of tape format.
o Hide cursor better in options screen.

5326bef3de This mega-commit brings in Jordan's latest sysinstall version..
This looks like it was developed offline, and is being spammed over the
top of the existing.  "That's fine by me!  I dont really care how you do
it, just get it in there..." said Jordan in a conversation a short while
ago...

a9b434857b Minor tweak: Change name of "Master partition editor" to "FDISK partition
editor" here and in the docs.  People have come to understand "FDISK"
as a more generic term and have been complaining that they didn't
equate the "master" partition editor with the old fdisk stage and were
confused.

e68b53ea5f It took a non-native speaker of English to show me that I couldn't
speak english.  In this doc I say that "2.0.5 fills a much needed
gap between 2.0R and 2.1."  No wonder the translators were confused!
I'm trying to say that we _wanted_ a gap between 2.0.5 and 2.1?  That
such gaps are much needed?  Wurgh!  Not what I was trying to say at
all!  It should have (and now does) read: "2.0.5 fills a critical
gap between 2.0R and 2.1."  Critical gap, not much needed. :-)
Translators:  You may wish to adjust your own translations as
well if you tried to translate my original botch!  Send me diffs
as soon as you can.  Thanks!

0c222512cb Whoops! I didn't check and spammed one author's
changes over another!  Bad form, and I thought  they
were both coming from the same author or I wouldn't have done
it.  Revert to original author's version until the two Spanish
translators figure out who's doing what.. :-)
