5326bef3de This mega-commit brings in Jordan's latest sysinstall version.. 
This looks like it was developed offline, and is being spammed over the
top of the existing.  "That's fine by me!  I dont really care how you do
it, just get it in there..." said Jordan in a conversation a short while
ago...

a9b434857b Minor tweak: Change name of "Master partition editor" to "FDISK partition 
editor" here and in the docs.  People have come to understand "FDISK"
as a more generic term and have been complaining that they didn't
equate the "master" partition editor with the old fdisk stage and were
confused.

e68b53ea5f It took a non-native speaker of English to show me that I couldn't 
speak english.  In this doc I say that "2.0.5 fills a much needed
gap between 2.0R and 2.1."  No wonder the translators were confused!
I'm trying to say that we _wanted_ a gap between 2.0.5 and 2.1?  That
such gaps are much needed?  Wurgh!  Not what I was trying to say at
all!  It should have (and now does) read: "2.0.5 fills a critical
gap between 2.0R and 2.1."  Critical gap, not much needed. :-)
Translators:  You may wish to adjust your own translations as
well if you tried to translate my original botch!  Send me diffs

25fce75ee4 Major cleanup. Mediaroutines now get asked about a file. All the 
multi part stuff centralized.
The final check is backwards or something so it always said it failed,
even it it didn't.
Fixed tcpip address check to not be stupid, 10.0.255.1 is legal.

a4b0c879ed 1. Try to work around a bodge in the ftp extraction loop where FtpEOF() was 
being called more than once.  Also fix a problem where the URL was getting
   smashed in the environment by copying it to a temporary area before we
   jump up and down on it.

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.

8cb85ad4c4 The cpio floppy is dead. All hail the root floppy. 
Basically, this is just a simple name change.  People were historically
confused by the "cpio floppy", having no clear idea as to what it was
(even if they knew what "cpio" stood for) given that the name gives
one absolutely no indication as to what it's FOR.  It's about as content
free as calling it a "data floppy".  Root floppy isn't much better, but
it's got some historical weight (Linux divides their set into boot and
root floppies) and is reasonably descriptive for a floppy that comprises
the beginnings of a stand-alone root filesystem.
