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.
- it now tries to find out if there are files that look like install
sets in the remote directory.
- it is possible to change to another directory when there are no
things like install-sets around.
- you can even get a directory listing while trying to find the
correct directory (wow ;-)
- when the correct directory is found, you can tag the sets you want to
extract (like in all(?) other cases). The only difference is that the
get-install sequence is batched.
There is still plenty of room for improvement, but it's getting workable.

Also, update Port Masters:

Needs refinement at a few places, probably, and the docs still need to be
rewritten.
And we _still_ don't have a native partition table editor in the tree.
- added method BOOTINSTALL, for an architecture to optionally install a
bootblock in the miniroot (this works for Amiga)
- added Amiga keymap directories
- removed the subdir selection from mount_local_disk() and mount_nfs(), and
the remains from mount_cdrom(), as all are handled now by the subdir
navigator in mount_from_installed_fs()
- add a subdirectory navigator for moving around in mounted CD-ROMs and
disk or network partitions.
Still a bit rough: should have explicit ".." support.
