446e6633c0 Remove the text that says that freebsd-bugs can't be subscribed 
to by anyone.

While I was at it, I changed all of the mailing list addresses to be
consistent with how they are referenced in the handbook.  E.g
freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.ORG instead of bugs@FreeBSD.ORG.

5dc52e3240 o Try to be more aggressive about reading in old configuration data 
so that we're more useful in multi-user mode.  This is still not
  100%, but it pulls in a lot more than it used to.  Some of the "composite"
  variables in /etc/sysconfig are going to take more work.

o Always write /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts if it makes sense to do
  so.

o Reset media properly when reselecting.  Longstanding bogon.

o Pull SIGPIPE handling out of package.c; I'm actually hoping to handle
  this differently shortly.

o Fix bug where cancel in TCP setup dialog still checked data fields.

ea4f82e353 OK, I've got two ideas to file in the "really seemed like a good idea 
at the time, but on further reflection..." bucket with these changes.

1. Checking the media before frobbing the disks was a fine idea, and
   I wish it could have worked, but that leads to a rather difficult
   situation when you need to mount the media someplace and you're about
   to:

	a) Chroot away from your present root.
	b) Newfs the root to be.

   You're basically screwed since there's no place to stick the mount
   point where it will be found following the newfs/chroot (and eliminating
   the chroot in favor of just using the "root bias" feature would work
   great for the distributions but not the pkg_add calls done by the
   package installer).

2. Automatic timeout handling.  I don't know why, but alarm() frequently
   returns no residual even when the alarm didn't go off, which defies
   the man page but hey, since when was that so unusual?  Take out timeouts
   but retain the code which temporarily replaces the SIGINT handler in
   favor of a more media-specific handler.  This way, at least, if it's hanging
   you can at least whap it.  I think the timeout code would have been losing
   over *really slow* links anyway, so it's probably best that it go.

This should fix NFS, tape & CDROM installs again (serves me right for getting
complacent and using just the FTP installs in my testing).

c7ed70aaeb Argh! Moving the media initialization to before the disk scribbling 
section was a good thing, since it made it possible to detect media problems
*before* the installation started, but it also caused various things to
be mounted BEFORE the chroot() call, which definitely messes things up.

Fix this by detecting the pre-chroot() case and mounting into a subdir.
