a19908742a Create symlinks for the MD5 libcrypt's in the bindist. 
Jordan, this and my previous commit to lib/Makefile should
re-establish the libcrypt for our releases now. :-)

Well, not sure, perhaps init(8) is linked against the wrong libcrypt
in the bindist. :-(

aggressive, in order to avoid /mnt: file system full problems.

Introduce a deadlock counter.

Turn off echoing again, it's cluttering the screen/log.

Gross hack to avoid the `vn0: invalid primary partition table: no magic'
warning.

709700e64d Check in the shell scripts I used for the 2.1-RELEASE CDROM. These 
are provided simply as easy short-cuts for users who are prowling through
the dists structure and decide to install something directly from there.

There still needs to be some glue stuck into release/Makefile to copy
these into the appropriate homes following a full `make release', but I'll
wait until phk is done in there.

26a185509d Use partition `a' for the vn device. Also vn-unconfig the vn device

443d347603 Hopefully the last bogons that prevented me from running a successful 
`make release':

. the `doc' distribution was missing, so the FAQ and handbook files
  couldn't be installed (Q: why did the psd etc. files install, only
  that the dirs had the wrong ownership?)

. the crunched binaries do need now -lipx

8afe324a8c 2.1.0R is over and out. Comment out the tags for it from the release 
Makefile (so release builds in -current require to set it from the
command line).

Make the cleanup of ${CHROOTDIR} non-fatal.  Otherwise, it stops
immediately if the ${CHROTDIR} is on a separately mounted file system.

1. Fix the bogon I introduced that made some root filesystems fail to be
   made with `unable to make filesystem on sd1s1a' or some such error
   message.

2. Latest installment in the never-ending chapter on making FTP do the right
   thing on a cruel internet.

3. Make `express install' a truly express install and split off what it used
   to do into a `novice install' that's even more geared to the novice
   by asking questions in order, rather than forcing them through the menu
   interface.

4. Make anonymous FTP setup truly DTRT.

5. Build lndir directly into sysinstall and make the novice install offer
   to set up the ports tree.  Also make the ports setup truly explanatory
   about what it's doing, and always link the ports destination to /usr/ports
   if necessary so that bsd.port.mk doesn't need to be tweaked.

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. :-)
