its list of devices before probing finishes. Add a hint for users who have
booted from a USB stick only to find that sysinstall can't find it.

More modifications will be required later for installations from ftp due
to the shared platform name with 32-bit powerpc, but this is enough for
snapshot CDs to work.

Bump / to 1GB, /var to 4GB and /tmp to 1GB.
A 512MB root partition is now too small to hold two kernels, so to
prevent installkernel failing 1GB is a better default. Likewise,
applications are storing more data in /var so 4GB is more reasonable
on a modern machine.
The previous minimum partition sizes were too small to hold a minimal
installation, and have been adjusted accordingly.
