50bd4baccd Prevent user astonishment by providing the shell option at the end, after
any installer-provided configuration files have been copied. This allows
users to edit their fstab, if desired, and to see what the installer has

2) In the IPv6 case add -inet6 to not alter the legacy IP default

29f67d2bd3 Swap FTP paths to be MACHINE/MACHINE_ARCH instead of MACHINE_ARCH/MACHINE.
This follows what the output of make targets looks like, and reduces the
number of directories needed on the FTP server, since we now have only one
architecture with multiple machine types (i386, which has i386 and pc98),
but 3 machines with 9 architectures between them (powerpc, mips, and arm).
