install of Postfix fails since Postfix 1 is picked from INDEX instead
of Postfix 2.
The problem is that the package_add function matches multiple Postfix
packages and then installs a "random" version (the last one found in
INDEX). This does not occur with a CD-ROM install since there is only
one Postfix package on the CD-ROM.
The correct solution to this would be to check the origin field from
INDEX instead of the package name, but due to the way sysinstall is
made that is not trivial, so instead work around the problem by
hard-coding the Postfix major and minor revision (for the current
stable version) to install directly into the package_add call.

o At the same time, change checkLabels() to define these globals instead
of having the caller of checkLabels() pass addresses to variables for
these. Change the two callers correspondingly.
o Spent a bit more time adjusting try_auto_label() to prepate for having
the EFI partition created on ia64.
o Remove efi_mountpoint(). The EFI chunk is now available without having
to iterate over the disks and chunks to find it every time we need it.

o Remove the code that creates the boot directory on the EFI file
system after it has been mounted, as well as remove the code
that creates the symlink from /boot -> /efi/boot (*). As a result,
/boot will be extracted onto the root file system.
o Add a function efi_mountpoint() that returns the mount point of
the EFI file system or NULL if no EFI partition is created. This
function is used to both check whether there's an EFI file system
and to return what its mount point is.
o When there's no EFI file system, ask the user if this is what he
or she wants. Since we extract /boot onto the root file system,
we do not actually need an EFI file system for the installation to
work. Whether one wants to install without an EFI partition is
of course an entirely different question. We allow it...
o When we're done installing and need to fix up the various bits
and pieces, check if there's an EFI partition and if yes, move
/boot to /efi/boot and create a symlink /boot -> /efi/boot (*).
This is a much more reliable way to get /boot onto the EFI
partition than creating the symlink up front and hope its being
respected. It so happened that we never had the boot directory
end up on the EFI partition. We make the symlink relative.
(*) /efi is a place holder for the actual EFI mount point of course.
we'll actually create an EFI partition with a FAT file system instead
of an UFS file system. It also allows us to give a sensible default
mount point for EFI partitions so that people don't have to guess.
This also means that we can now remove new_efi_part(), which did the
same thing as new_part(), except it created a FAT file system. The
function wasn't called when the EFI partition was created from scratch
though, which was the problem. By passing the partition type to the
various functions, we can deal with EFI without having to duplicate
code.
that actually need it. This makes it easier for a platform porter to
find the files that may need tweaking to support whatever MD specific
partitioning is needed. It also helps to prevent that the libdisk API
gets exposed and/or used where it's not needed.

'Select' begin with S and 'Select' is winning. This makes it so 'Select'

between 'Select' and 'Exit'.

- Don't look for partitions inside a FreeBSD chunk on ia64 when mounting
the filesystems just before the chroot and install.
- Write entries out to /etc/fstab for filesystems that aren't inside a
FreeBSD chunk, but are a top-level chunk under the disk.
addresses. For arch's with 64-bit longs, this is a nop, but for i386 this
allows sysinstall to properly handle disks and filesystems > 1 TB.
Changes from the original patch include:
- Use d_addr_t rather than inventing a blkcnt type based on int64_t.
- Use strtoimax() rather than strtoull() to parse d_addr_t's from config
files.
- Use intmax_t casts and %jd rather than %llu to printf d_addr_t values.

longer true, which makes the third pretty moot. In fact, we don't seem to
put device node bits into the distribution archives at all anymore.
So..... remove the god-aweful nasty hack that force unmounted devfs during
installation so that static device nodes could land in /dev. Now that the
vnode cleaner handles this case better this isn't strictly needed, but
axeing code in sysinstall is almost always benficial. Thanks to Don Lewis

permitting the administrator to select a securelevel top operate
at. Include a helpfile summarizing some of the information from
init(8). This allows for explicit configuration of securelevels,
which was previously implicit in Security Profile selection.
Currently, there are no checkboxes for the active securelevel,
because sysinstall's facilities for deriving "current settings"
from rc.conf may use only one variable, not two, and I opted for
the simplest approach at this point.

selection is used to drive two configuration parameters:
(1) Default enable/disable for sshd
(2) Default enable/disable for securelevels
Replace this with an explicit choice to enable/disable sshd. A
follow-up commit will add a configuration option to the Security
post-install configuration menu to set the securelevel in rc.conf
explicitly. This should reduce the level of foot-shooting associated
with accidental enabling of securelevels, make the nature and
implications of the securelevel configuration options more explicit,
as well as make the choice to enable/disable sshd more explicit.
