jonathan 1483395dbe Move DOS BIOS-geometry and MBR-handling code to MI code for powerpc, arc:
* Split bios geometry and MBR partition editing code formerly in
    arch/i386/{md,fdisk}.c to mbr.c in mi  directory.
  * Leave /sbin/fdisk parsing/handling code in separate file,
    we may want to change it later. move to mi directory.
  * Create mbr.h with declarations for MBR/BIOS-geomotry code.
    #include "mbr.h" in  i386 md.h.
  * Use symbolic names for 386bsd and new NetBSD partition IDs.

Handle MBRs with both 386bsd and NetBSD partitions less stupidly.

jonathan 7bd6655894 Add check for overlapping partitions:
* Add `partinfo' type, for description of a single partition,
   so we can pass labels by reference..
 * Add label.c with label initialization, naive overlap-check code,
   and a UI entrypoint edit_and_check_label() which iterates through
   checking a label for overlaps, and if any, giving the user the choice of
   fixing them or punting back to the main menu.
 * Change return type of md_make_bsd_partitions from void to int.
   Return 0 if the partition has problems (or the user gave up on it)
   and 1 if the partition is completed and looks OK.
 * Change install() to check return value of md_make_bsd_partitions().
   If it returns zero,  print an `abort' message and return to main menu.
 * Add label.c to all ports' Makefile.

MD code tested on pmax and cut-and-pasted to other ports.

jonathan 2d01e4dc90 * Change sysinst MI code to use new install-target-filesystem access functions.
Add  target.c to Makefiles.

* Minor fixes:
  * Fix buglet in disks.c: make sure the target /etc exists before
    touching the target's /etc/fstab. (Could be even cleaner.)

   * If the target root is on /, don't copy our temporary /etc/resolv.conf
     to the target /etc/resolv.conf. (Could be even cleaner.)
   * Don't write the DNS hostname into /etc/defaultdomain.
     DNS  search paths are often not the same as YP group names.

lukem e48b312006 use CPPFLAGS instead of CFLAGS, fix dependancies, add RCSID 1997-10-22 02:17:11 +00:00
phil 15274f8880 Update to current state. Install and upgrade nearly finished. Disk
discovery and geometry no longer use /kern/msgbuf.

phil af1d23bed3 Import of sysinst. Not quite ready, but other ports want access for
parallel development.  i386 version about 90% complete.  pc532 version
just started, other architectures later in coordination with portmasters.

This is a curses based, menu driven installation program.

Better error checking is needed.
