scripts using #!/bin/sh (like /mnt2/dev/MAKEDEV) will work.

2. Conditionalized a few small things which needed it.
3. Put PC98 X servers in their own menu, there are so many of them now.
4. Rampaged on the menus.c file in general, reformatting and cleaning up.

88d8c0377c Sysinstall now offers the installation of a keymap early in the game!
Not all mappings are supported, most languages come only with one
encoding since this should be sufficient to get up & running in using
sysinstall, and we are already pretty tight on space.  (My previous
commit has already bumped the boot MFS size by another 50 KB for
this.)

This feature requires the `kbdcontrol -L' i've just committed.  Plain
text keymaps and the entire scanner are overkill for sysinstall.

Also updated the list of available keymaps while i was at it.

ce411f960d Several improvements to the `fixit' configuration:
. Don't gzip the crunched binary by now; it just fits, and execution is
  a lot faster this way (it's truly demand-paged again).

. Add more(1), ft(8), protocols(5), a stripped down services(5).

. Improve the .profile, and make sysinstall actually use it again.

Still no go for a 4 MB configuration though. :-(

99f986b1f6 If mounting the fixit floppy fails in the first place, warn the user
but make a second attempt using MNT_FORCE, just in case it has been
unclean from a previous crash.  That's dangerous, but far better than
keeping the despaired user standing in the rain...

(Experienced admins can still fsck it then, and remount.  Others will
either totally crash, or incidentally succeed, without much further
help possible...)

Btw., mount(2) misses the description of MNT_FORCE for the mount
syscall.
