fbe05c8a1f Add a terminal entry for xterm; a lot of people are using xterms
in the serial-installation of FreeBSD.

99f18ec71a Allow the Fix-it functionality to detect that we are on a serial console,
and DTRT rather than start the fixit shell on a non-existant vty.

a1a3fef805 IPv6 support.
IPv6 configuration is only done by rtsol.  Does someone really
need manual configuration? :-)
You can specify IPv6 DNS server as well.
We have only one server ftp7.jp.freebsd.org that speaks IPv6
in this time.  ftp7.jp speaks IPv4 as well and also listed as
Japan #7.

ee30765d21 Add an option to select the Fix-it tty. The current behavior is utterly
*useless* on serial consoled machines.

92455c01ca Add support for USB to sysinstall. This includes running usbd and
setting 'usbd_enable' in rc.conf during nwe installs if USB is detected.
Also, since usbd already handles USB mice automatically, note that the
mouse setup section in sysinstall only applies to non-USB mice.

ba590929ec o Add support for loading the rsaref or rsaintl packages, depending
on locale.

o Allow use of "G" in label editor to stand for gigabytes. This
  is actually an unrelated patch which I meant to commit separately
  but what the heck, it's late.

05b45479e7 Invert the meaning of two questions in the Standard installation so just
whapping "Yes" by default does not turn you into an anonymous FTP-supporting
gateway machine.  Those aren't the right "defaults."

38acf2a74f In retrospect, msgNotify() should leave its contents on the screen
longer to give the user something to look at while things are happening.
Change it to do so and insert the appropriate screen saves elsewhere.

4084cdc560 Completely rip-out and redesign sysinstall's refresh model as well
as redoing all the menus to have proper, or at least non-hallucinogenic,
keyboard accelerators.

This requires my recent update to libdialog to work properly and will
probably also exhibit some other "interesting" behavior while the last
few missing screen clears are found (which is why I'm not going to MFC
immediately).  At least now, however, sysinstall does not gratuitously
redraw random screens at the drop of a hat and drive serial console
installers out of their minds.

aade7fffe2 Oh crud, did I ever screw the pooch! Rather than sync this with -stable,
I backed-out the changes in -current and didn't touch stable at all (I
thought I had my patch order reversed, not what actually happened).
AIEEE!  I can't even blame the crack for this one since I broke my
crack pipe a few weeks ago.  I think sleep deprivation gets the blame
for this one.

18af399cc9 MFC: Catch 3.2-stable sysinstall up to 4.0-current level functionality,
bringing in DHCP support.  The only thing I left out were Poul-Henning's
newfs changes since I'm not sure if he's brought the rest of that support
into -stable yet.  If it turns out that this is the case, I'll MFC those
changes too.

1ba9917725 Make the newfs parameters a global option.
The default is still "-b 8192 -f 1024" but my experiments show that
"-b 16384 -f 4096 -c 100" is a more sensible value for modern
disksizes.
