If the user did not chose a distribution from the menu, a sensible default distribution (user) will be installed, however, no kernel will be installed. Fix this by installing a sensible default kernel, SMP/GENERIC, depending on WITH_SMP and number of CPUS found. Approved by: re (hrs)

Add FreeBSD version information to the menu title so it's possible to see which release you are installing (really which FreeBSD version the installer is running, but that shouldn't matter in all normal cases).

- Fix a bug in sysinstall related to mounting CD-ROMs. If mount(2) fails

2005-03-02T22:27:22Z

with EBUSY and a cdrom is not mounted at /cdrom, sysinstall fails to treat it as an error and thinks that the disk mounted ok. However, it doesn't find a cdrom.inf file so it complains. Later when it tries to unmount the disk due to a mediaClose() umount(2) returns an error, and it never clears its internal mounted flag. The fix here is to properly handle EBUSY as an error if there isn't a CD already mounted at /cdrom. - Add a new CDROMInitQuiet variable that can be used to shut up the dialog box about the mount(2) system call failing when trying to mount a CD-ROM. This is used by the feature described below. - When using a fixit CD, first try to see if we can mount the disc in the drive now and use it as a fixit CD. If not, then prompt the user to insert the disc and try again. If we do succeed on the first "silent" probe then we don't ask the user to eject the disk after leaving fixit mode. - Add a simple file existence test to make sure that the disc that we mount really is a livefs disc. - Explicitly switch back to ttyv0 when using the standard console after the fixit shell dies. Previously this behavior worked accidentally because all the fixit modes popped up a dialog box which contained a hidden switch to ttyv0. MFC after: 1 day
