0b25c3665d [Changes are now for BETA]
This attempts to make the installion a little less grating by not
clearing the screen every time a like-sized dialog is going to splat
on top of another one.  If you don't want the screen to clear, set
clear="", otherwise leave it set to (or set it back to) "--clear".

It can't be set to "" all the time since then small dialogs appearing
on top of big dialogs look funky.

6eca28c059 One last formatting change. Done. 1994-11-09 20:16:09 +00:00

414f020212 Remove ppp from the list of options - we don't even have ppp in the default
kernel, and ppp people can generally use SLIP.

A few more formatting changes.

Make slip installation work.

7adc28f048 Add full support for NFS installation. Add support for CD installation,
even though we don't use it yet (I may burn some one-offs tonite though! :-).

49cadd8706 Remove the redirects for extract.sh. Upon further reflection, you
need to see the output on the main vty.  cpio likes to open /dev/tty
for its output! :-(

a300f45e84 I was being too conservative in my estimation of disk space. Bump
these values up a bit after being yelled at by Poul.

70201e1003 11th hour fixes to get the install just right. Fix some bugs
in how ftp transfers were done, make sure all output goes to /dev/ttyv1
for debugging, add in the parallel-IP support so Poul will stop
squeaking (for the moment, anyway).

d32d339dc6 Sorry about last commit message (or lack thereof) - slip of the fingers.
Adjust the docs to point out how to get a sub-shell during the install.
Add an entry for the PCMCIA ethernet driver.

cf9fe035b2 Trim back the confirm dialog.
Increase the amount of space available to the ethernet setup dialog
Put in a last parting-shot dialog telling you to run tzsetup, and promising
to do this for you later.
Adjust flags to ifconfig - they were bogus.

bcfc246f74 Beat this quite a bit more into shape. Almost there - time to test at
least one major install method.

cfc507cc8b 1. The gzip'd docs aren't going to work - there's no scroll-back for
process output dialogs (or any way to stop the output, for that matter!).
2. Install the very first cut of my bininst stage6 script.  VERY rough,
   it doesn't actually do anything just yet, but I need to make sure that
   it's at least executed for the moment.
