f21ffaa690 Fix handling of the 'noError' variable. According to the code comments,
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.

d375e1c241 Add support for an additional field to the packages/INDEX file. If
present, this field specifies the media volume that the disc is
contained on.  If the volume of a given packages is different than the
current volume of mediaDevice, then the user is prompted --

  "This is disc #%d.  Package %s is on disc #%d\n"
  "Would you like to switch discs now?\n"

If the user selects yes, then DEVICE_SHUTDOWN is called and the user
is then prompted --

  "Please remove disc #%d from you drive, and add disc #%d"

This works well for a carefully crafted INDEX file, but more work
needs to be done to sort dependencies on a given package based on the
volume that they reside on, to minimize the amount of disc flipping
required of the user.

This commit is a no-op for normal INDEX files and FreeBSD CDs.  These
additional features are only used if the INDEX and cdrom.inf file have
multi-volume support.

60f91e4cad Switch to using XFree86 version 4. We do this thru installing the package,
so know we have proper PKG registration and dependency information.

This is a WIP for 5.0 DP #1, so it is still rough around the edges and
does not GC the old XFree86 3.3.6 handling stuff that should be GC'ed.

167a3a1729 Embed boot images built as part of buildworld rather than the
installed ones under /boot (which we may not even have in the
case of a cross build).

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.

beast.FreeBSD.org running 5.0-CURRENT alpha has been able to
cross build i386 world with this patch.
