- Tweak the message prior to the label editor in the !WITH_SLICES case to
make it slightly less awkward since this is the first dialog we see after

compat.
- Only offer to configure moused(8) if WITH_MICE is defined.

1. actually run the newfs command at mount time (install.c),
2. display the newfs state on screen (label.c)
3. allow toggling of the newfs state (label.c)
Even though newfs(8)-ing FAT partitions can be of use on i386
machines in general, it has been opted to minimize impact for
now.
With this change there's no a priori difference between EFI and

graduated from high school) when 'newfs -u' support was axed, so remove it.
This also allows us to remove a hack in the create partition case where we
created the partition twice since we didn't have the size the first time.

* sparc64 should halt back to the firmware, not reset.

one can set the 'noError' variable to ignore any errors that occur for the
next command. However, the code was only unsetting 'noError' when an error
actually occurred, so if you set 'noError', the next command completed ok,
and the command after that failed, the second command's failure would be
ignored. This fixes this by performing the 'noError' check earlier and
then unsetting 'noError' after every command that is run.

This introduced chicken and egg problem - we need boot images
early in the "depend" stage but they have not yet been built.
Work around this by excluding the generated makeboot.c source
from the "depend" list; it's okay because we hardcode all its
dependencies explicitly. We actually lose the dependency bit
on <sys/types.h> but it's probably okay too as the only thing
we use is the u_char datatype and this is unlikely to change.
After all, it's normal for sloppy cleaning to cause problems.

o Move nfs_reserved_port_only out of security profiles (where it was
set somewhat improperly) to the Security options menu directly.
Previously, the variable was set to true for Moderate, but not for
Extreme, which is at best inconsistent.
o Update the Security Profiles help file to remove reference to the
NFS reserved port.
o Note that the kernel currently defaults the sysctl to '0', but
sysinstall has changed it to '1' as a default as of late; however,
rc.conf sets the value to NO as the default. This change brings

Following recent discussions on the -arch mailing list, involving dillon

This should provide significant performance improvements for most

wasted space lost to large fragments for many folks.

moused run for them automatically by usbd so we don't need to setup moused
for them. We do need to setup moused for other mice though, so if the
user has a USB mouse, we don't need to do anything. Hence the wording
"Do you have a non-USB mouse installed?" for the question. The question
can be reworded as "Do you have a PS/2 or Serial mouse installed?" instead
if that is preferred.
