bogus path and FTP I/O errors much earlier, offer retry possibilities
at steps along the way so you don't have to resume from the very beginning
again on a hard error.
1. Bus mouse selection didn't show up properly in mouse menu.
2. U&G management screen didn't respect cancel properly.
3. Novice not prompted to add users or set root password during installation.
4. Username length changes screw up user management form.
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.
Use consistent spelling throughout.
Remove unmount in fixit_common() since that's bogus in the CDROM case and
properly "shut down" the media device instead.
Disable saving of SCSI device parameters in userconfig saving in hopes
of working around a reported problem in the no-device case; there's no
point in saving this information here anyway.
2nd patch submitted-by: "Eric L. Hernes" <erich@lodgenet.com>
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.
Remove a duplicate entry for ahc0 in hardware.hlp (closes PR #
docs/2282), a few additions all over the place while i was at it.
Tried to add as much of the important highlights for the new features
in 2.2 into the release notes. I still think that many things are
missing here, so folks, if you imported something great that's in 2.2
but not in 2.1.X, please review this section and send us your
additions!

I don't want it in sysinstall/help, since that'll get it stuck on the
actual floppy, and I didn't fell like creating a doc/ subdirectory for
one file either. Bah.
use of stdio, I can't just go handing fileno(fp) around and expect
that to work. Since this means I need to have sysinstall play pipeline
on single file distributions now, that means I can also finally add a
progress indicator for them.
Change installation instructions to note that there's no dists directory
anymore on CDROMs.
