553bed49c4 Quite a few changes:
1. Fix the last display bugs (I hope) by use of dialog rebuilds at stategic
   points.
2. Clean up the distributions menus so that everybody (that's reasonable)
   has All and Clear options for setting/clearing things en-masse.
3. Various attempts at display optimization.
4. Change the wording of the `Don't use Write!' dialogs to make them more
   explicitly define when and when not to use the option.

e665fee23a Bring this into sync.
I still have a _very very annoying_ display bug which occurs when a menu
item causes a submenu to be displayed - the screen repaints for the original
menu (which is restored upon return from the submenu) are off by about 4
characters.  I've tried restoring the screen, the cursor position, you name
it - same deal.  Grrrr!  This commit is my first step in trying to get someone
else to help me look into this one since I'm just tearing my hair out at this
point!

61af07d023 Major surgery.
1. Use new dialog menu hacks (no strings, just arrays of dialogMenuItem structs)
   so that I can create composite menus with radio/checkbox/... items in them,
   removing some long-standing UI bogons in various menus.  This work isn't
   finished yet, but will be done in two phases.  This is phase one.

2. Remove all the script installation stuff.  I never got time to document it,
   it was arcane and it just complicated much of the code.  There are better
   ways of doing this if I want to do auto-driven installations later.

3. Remove much dead code and otherwise attempt to remove as much historical
   grot as possible so that this code is easier to hack on.  This is also
   a two-stage process, phase one of which is now complete.

797e229422 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.

51db685ce5 Commit my latest so that Gary can sync up - this version should also
be the grounds for our first round of testing in the release I'm rolling.
It doesn't load the distributions yet, but it should do everything else.

78baa7daa2 This does _not yet compile_; I'm simply bringing in my changes from
this weekend in order to more easily sync with my CVS tree at home.
Another commit relative to these changes will follow shortly.

7ed2702c50 First round of changes after testing this on actual systems. Clean up
some of the badly displayed menus, use the proper notification box for
messages, make proceed work.

2bc42149ba Fold in all my recent changes.
Do another clean-up pass over this, making the generic menu handler much
more powerful (now handles multiple dispatch).  A few more menus fleshed
out and the beginnings of the distribution handler committed.  Should
be transfering full distributions over in the next commit.

e3598880e3 Commit my latest changes before having a nap. Still not close to done,
nor is it in sync with my working sources, but it leaves me less CVS hassles
to bring in the new files at this time.  Still no documentation to translate
quite yet, but soon.  This stuff is actually very close now.

fe13bd0b5e o Add extra menu types (radio implemented, multiple choice shortly).
o Make the framework generally more robust.
o Figured out how to nest the menu descriptions - no more grotty initialization
  of menus.
o Fix bug with helpline and helpfile not being reset.
o Add stubs for the media selection code.

Coming next:  Fdisk and disklabel screens using Phk's new libdisk stuff.

3fd1641f11 Latest raft of changes.
Added another couple of menu item types.

Reshuffled the menus and added a few more.  Sure wish I could figure out
how to initialize a menu with _one_ initializer rather than two! :(

6f2f81d9e4 Here is my first "framework" commit of the new sysinstall. There is a LOT
more to come in the next 24 hours, this is just the first stable result of
8 hours of hacking so far.  The specification format for menus is pretty
much hammered out and the beginnings (very humble) of the doc hierarchy
are present for an example.  It should be quite easy to add a lot more
menus quickly to this since I did go somewhat out of my way to make the
framework easy to work with.  This is NOT the glorious semi-graphical
sysinstall (or whatever its name will be) that the install-geeks are working
on, this is simply the "son of sysinstall" I've been promising to write in
the interim for 2.0.5 and 2.1R (super install doesn't come until 2.2R).
