5662f32138 Fix a bug in the /etc populating copy.
Change root.flp from a new format CPIO archive to a tar archive.
Unless we're willing to change the main tarballs from tar format to
"newc" (or, even better, "crc") cpio format, we need to use one common
one for all and that's tar for now.  Install will now grab "root floppy"
from an ftp site if that's what you've got set.

Fix even more gripes from Poul's list.

P.S.  As soon as I get the distfiles copied over to freefall tomorrow
morning, those of you wishing to test minimal installs over ftp should
be able to do so by grabbing the boot floppy and nothing else.  Keep
your eyes open for my announcement.

floppy.

a098749d6b Bring everybody up to date on my morning's work.
1. Fix a few bugs in the ftp installation code and implement proper
   ftp and network shutdown routines.

2. Clean up the menus a fair bit - add a FreeBSD configuration menu.

3. Eliminate the last of the "chaining" - the installation now does
   the most obvious thing in the most obvious cases and doesn't present
   you with more menus than you were expecting.  This makes it necessary to be
   a little more explicit in places, but it's still less confusing.

4. Add a few more safety nets for the user.  Change a few hard-and-fast
   limits to warnings (it now runs as non-root, Bruce).

5. Add descriptions for all the supported ethernet cards.

6. Make the cpio floppy extract put up a menu requesting the drive you wish
   to use if you have more than one; don't just always assume drive A.
