Print out summary information on receipt of SIGINFO; also, stop the
kernel printing of information and restore it on exit. Now, it needs
an option to be quiet. ;)
All the mbr code now seems to be working. We can build a basic
unix disklabel in any existing DOS partition while retaining the
existing mbr bootcode or we can install to the whole disk which
puts FreeBSD's boot code into the MBR and creates a clean MBR
partition table with FreeBSD in partition 0 taking up the whole disk.
use dialog functions properly
move alloc_memory early to prevent core dump at stage 3
Change 25x80 to 24x80
Fix setenv diagnostic
Fix Fatal to call end_dialog()
Re-organised files, moved bootcode routines into their own files.
Check return types of everything and pass error messages to
windows so we get good diagnostics.
Made start on stage 2 installation. Implemented a status file that
keeeps track of where we are in the installation process and allows
installation from media sequences.

I got a lot of
"getty repeating too quickly on port %s, sleeping"
from init.bsdi, it means that getty start and exit in five seconds.
This is common situation for poor quality Russian phone lines:
modem got CONNECT message and after retries got NO CARRIER.
So I introduce spacing count, it means that this warning and
sleep occurse only after GETTY_NSPACE times of sequental attempts.

I found (and fix) ugly bugs in init.bsdi (this bugs not present
in old init)
1) Init don't setup TERM environment variable for default terminal
type from /etc/ttys before calling getty/window.
2) When "kill -1 1" issued, init don't restart getty when
/etc/ttys parameters was changed (it only kill "off" end empty entries).
3) Small memory leak if "window" /etc/ttys parameter specified and
"kill -1 1" issued.
Obtained from: FreeBSD 1.x
being output if <= 1 rpos; there is a bug in the kernel which doesn't
quite get along with this. Changed default #rpos to 1, and fixed up
manual page. Converted nrpos to 1 if user specifies 0.
