in some code from C. Stone to parse the lease information. This is still
a WIP and this commit is largely intended to allow others to sync up; the
dhclient code still only works when doing dhcp configuration post-install
and requires a bit more work on the boot floppy before it will truly
work in the minimal bootstrapping role.
on CDs and FTP sites.
o Collapse some redundant code.
o Fix typo'd menu.
o Restrict searches properly to packages rather than categories.
o Small tweaks to signal handling.
All RELENG_3 candidates.
feature of packages now so that no version info is embedded.
o Add a default X desktop menu offering afterstep, enlightenment, KDE, GNOME
and Windowmaker desktops instead of the boring twm(1) based one if the
user so chooses. This will require a little testing.
to now detect that CD you just remembered to put in the drive or that
pccard NIC that you've inserted (anybody can put pccardd in an mfsroot image
now you know.. :)

orthogonal to the other entries).
Clean up X selection code a bit.
Choose proper architecture subdirectories on mirror sites now that we've
gone fully to the new multi-arch directory scheme.
Now we know which variables are internal and which need to be
backed to /etc/rc.conf.site. rc.conf is not touched now.
Also kget kernel change information back properly and set up a loader.rc
file to use it.
o Move fixups into extraction routine so all consumers don't have to duplicate
the right behavior.
o Make some things more orthogonal (just for asthetics sake)
o Add option to go back and do it again if XF86Setup fails (possibly with
a different setup - this one has always annoyed me).
the device is enabled by default in the GENERIC kernel.
- Kill the mouse daemon, if any, when the user wants to disable it.
- Minor update on mouse menus.
Now you can use one without entering the other and it will DTRT.
These changes just allowed me to do the most straight-forward new disk
installation I've ever managed with sysinstall.
1. Detecting the split /dev/ttyv0 / /dev/console case, e.g. you've
booted with the -h flag and you have a VGA card also.
2. Adding an extra "menu" for selecting terminal type and adding ANSI
to the list of compiled-in terms.
3. Opening the proper file descriptors before disowning ourselves.

those ideas that, like the Apache server setup, was well-intentioned
but doomed to fail in the face of change. That and the fact that it
shouldn't be part of the installation tool, it should be part of the
post-installation setup tool (which we need to write). Combining the
two utilities into one utility was my first conceptual mistake.
Apologies also to Coranth Gryphon, who worked hard on the Apache
and Samba server setup code. These features were quite useful
for awhile, if that's any consolation, I just simply had the wrong
ideas about where to put them. :-(
Add a system command to script mechanism (so you can call things like
tzsetup from scripts).
Add noError variable for causing script errors to be ignored.
sysinstall about the dangerously dedicated message, and other
variables to allow pre-configuring the distribution sets.
Still todo: add a variable to define an initial set of packages that
should be loaded.
