Ask whether the user wants to delete the fetched files (ftp and floppy) after
install. Delete after sucessful install of each file.
Kill bufferred tty input in a couple of places when typeahead will be wrong.
Code added to run.c to do a 'cd' in the child, unused (so far).
for the location of the source of the sets.
Put the menu in the place on the screen that used to contian a display
of what was selected.
Now these screen work the same way as the disk partitioning ones.

asks you where to load stuff from.
Initialise stuff so that 'install default set of sets' works.
Fix install loop, removing infinite loop if/when first kernel not selected.

want to keep or delete the dist files.
Stop the "type enter to continue" if the rmdir fails - may not be empty.

Move info about cylinders to the 'ask for units' menu.

Stop i386 always asking for units.
Use BIOS cylinders for MBR and disk cylinders for the disklabel.
(code intended to do this, but got it wrong...)
Mark some menus as 'sub menu' or MC_SUBMENU so that the screen underneath
is saved.
Add GENERIC.MPACPI to i386 menu.
I've made the error retry loops go back as far as the input menus.
Split all the pathname inputs into 2 pieces (base directory and set directory).
Reduced the size of some fixed strings.
Stopped the install aborting if ftp can't find a set (eg the X ones).
The French and Polish transations don't differenciate between Base_dir and
Set_dir - but that can be fixed later.
