af06a2d9e6 Close PR#1542. Don't just assume 24 lines, get the tty size.
Some things may still display text on the 24th line, but that's because
they've always been screens designed to fit into a minimal real-estate
and have hardwired assumptions about the dimensions.  They'll be a little
harder to make dynamic.

0a66b4f53a Damn - looks like upgrade got broken along the way and it's not something
I usually test, so... :-(  Guess we'll have to slide the tag forward on
these two files - Peter, could you do the honors?  I've been up for the last
30 hours or so and I just *know* that any attempt on my part to do this would
probably end up deleting the entire repository somehow. :-)

56fd5c89a1 Back out my change for Peter which did transfer timings based on current
chunk rather than distribution - it's just caused the numbers to fluctuate
too wildly, sorry Peter! ;-(

4a2c20ca18 Remove some suspect sector size calculations which are also the source
of some confusing messages from newfs (just judging by the number of people
who point them out, anyway).

9b9952dd90 Fix something I broke with CDROM installation (well, I knew my first
test CD would turn at least one bug up :-).

1cc912b368 Take compat dists out of the canned set - they seem to do more harm
than good, actually, and those who actually need them can select them.

496e7f4568 A number of improvements in the way statistics are printed, add a "chroot"
option for installing distributions and/or packages to somewhere other than /,
say for a case where you're installing to an external disk on some other
machine's behalf.  More miscellaneous fixes to various problems I stumbled
across while adding this stuff.

7e51f09a84 Whoops! Now that I'm decompressing docs into /tmp, it's important to
make sure that /tmp is there first! :-)  While I'm at it, clean up the
somewhat inexplicably bogus Mkdir() function.

4c968f95bb Support compressed doc files again.
Add a few strategic screen clears.
Do a lot less wasted screen I/O in restoring screen contents that don't need
restoring.
Use tar instead of cp to back up /etc in installUpdate.
Don't panic when upgrade shell exits.
