* network.c,v 1.53 (by ceri):
Fixes DHCP handling to use a more robust way to determine whether
DHCP should be used.
* tcpip.c,v 1.134:
Avoid adding unnecessary tailing space when no media option(s) is
specified.

- Hide 'incorrect geometry warning' in non-interactive mode. Users should
know what they are doing in non-interactive mode. Less scarier warning
goes to debugging info instead.
- Print sanitized geometry to debugging info.
For example, you can dynamically generate and load configuration file
depending on the hardware configuration with the following template:
mediaSetCDROM
mediaOpen
command=/dist/scripts/install.sh
system
mediaClose
configFile=generated.cfg
loadConfig
Now we have full access to files on the media before installation begins.
On i386, 7.0 requires 106MB on /usr. 6.0 requires 101MB.
Bump USR_MIN_SIZE to 128MB, so that an auto-layout install won't fail
due to /usr being too small.
r1.36:
Correct obsolete chown syntax.
r1.37:
If sysinstall was used to configure an anonymous FTP area, it
was possible for information to be copied from the group file to
the group file in the FTP area. This patch based on a patch
from Zak Johnson <zakj at nox dot cx>.
An i386 machine with 32MB of RAM requires a 700MB disk for auto-layout to
succeed, whilst an i386 with 256MB of RAM requires more. Up the amount
of disk hinted at as a minimum requisite for auto-layout.
Preserve /etc/sysctl.conf when doing a binary update. This prevents, for
instance, the dreaded shared memory problem in PostgreSQL coming back to
haunt you after a binary update.

it about the lease file location and not invoking it with the (non-existant)
'-r' option. Releasing leases works vastly different now, so this isn't
needed.

the NTP server list.
The servers are by Internet Multifeed Co., and connected to their
IX service JPNAP. It would be a good NTP server for machines in Japan.

with EBUSY and a cdrom is not mounted at /cdrom, sysinstall fails to
treat it as an error and thinks that the disk mounted ok. However, it
doesn't find a cdrom.inf file so it complains. Later when it tries to
unmount the disk due to a mediaClose() umount(2) returns an error, and it
never clears its internal mounted flag. The fix here is to properly
handle EBUSY as an error if there isn't a CD already mounted at /cdrom.
- Add a new CDROMInitQuiet variable that can be used to shut up the dialog
box about the mount(2) system call failing when trying to mount a CD-ROM.
This is used by the feature described below.
- When using a fixit CD, first try to see if we can mount the disc in the
drive now and use it as a fixit CD. If not, then prompt the user to
insert the disc and try again. If we do succeed on the first "silent"
probe then we don't ask the user to eject the disk after leaving fixit
mode.
- Add a simple file existence test to make sure that the disc that we mount
really is a livefs disc.
- Explicitly switch back to ttyv0 when using the standard console after
the fixit shell dies. Previously this behavior worked accidentally
because all the fixit modes popped up a dialog box which contained a
hidden switch to ttyv0.

disk. This is main reason why sysinstall presents SCSI CDROM to
available disks in Fdisk/Label menu. In addition, adding a blank
SCSI CDROM to the menu generates floating point exception in sparc64.
Disk_Names() just extracts sysctl "kern.disks". Why GEOM treats SCSI
CDROM as a disk is beyond me and that should be investigated.
For temporary workaround, ignore SCSI CDROM device.
