719de2bced Clean up device handling WRT slip and ppp devices. An incomplete transition
from one convention to another had things pretty fouled up in here.

e5b09b7d10 Do something I've wanted to do for quite some time - collapse all the
common layout code into some work functions and make all the layout-using
routine adopt them.  Also reorganize includes and generally clean up.

18926d84a6 Support the use of the 2nd CDROM as a fixit aid. Also put the EHS
into a submenu in case you need to start it again (or at some other point
in the installation).

2 before 1.

86767547be Be more efficient in how we use memory (stumbled across while looking for
something else) for attributes and variables.

Remove stack-stomper in sstrncpy().

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.

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.

2ce9c19184 1. Take out console setup in options now that Joerg has moved it into
the main menu.
2. Conditionalized a few small things which needed it.
3. Put PC98 X servers in their own menu, there are so many of them now.
4. Rampaged on the menus.c file in general, reformatting and cleaning up.

9b23ef93f3 Sysinstall now offers the installation of a keymap early in the game!
Not all mappings are supported, most languages come only with one
encoding since this should be sufficient to get up & running in using
sysinstall, and we are already pretty tight on space.  (My previous
commit has already bumped the boot MFS size by another 50 KB for
this.)

This feature requires the `kbdcontrol -L' i've just committed.  Plain
text keymaps and the entire scanner are overkill for sysinstall.

Also updated the list of available keymaps while i was at it.

5def50038a Use macros for package names so it's easier to update them in one
place (sysinstall.h) when packages change rev.

Change the way that the routing daemon is configured entirely, to
placate Joerg.  Also auto-load gated if it's specified, while we're at it.

a19596c5a8 Close PR#1542. Don't just assume 24 lines, get the tty size.
Some things may still display text on the 24th line, but that's because
they've always been screens designed to fit into a minimal real-estate
and have hardwired assumptions about the dimensions.  They'll be a little
harder to make dynamic.

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.

bogus exit()s into proper calls to systemShutdown().

18b1c03d52 Quite a few changes:
1. Fix the last display bugs (I hope) by use of dialog rebuilds at stategic
   points.
2. Clean up the distributions menus so that everybody (that's reasonable)
   has All and Clear options for setting/clearing things en-masse.
3. Various attempts at display optimization.
4. Change the wording of the `Don't use Write!' dialogs to make them more
   explicitly define when and when not to use the option.

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!

957bdf511e Major surgery.
1. Use new dialog menu hacks (no strings, just arrays of dialogMenuItem structs)
   so that I can create composite menus with radio/checkbox/... items in them,
   removing some long-standing UI bogons in various menus.  This work isn't
   finished yet, but will be done in two phases.  This is phase one.

2. Remove all the script installation stuff.  I never got time to document it,
   it was arcane and it just complicated much of the code.  There are better
   ways of doing this if I want to do auto-driven installations later.

3. Remove much dead code and otherwise attempt to remove as much historical
   grot as possible so that this code is easier to hack on.  This is also
   a two-stage process, phase one of which is now complete.
