Update of /a/cvsroot/src/distrib/utils/sysinst
In directory netbsd1:/var/slash-tmp/cvs-serv27730

Modified Files:
	defs.h disks.c install.c msg.mi.eng net.c target.c upgrade.c 
	util.c 
Log Message:
* Add code to run `test(1)' on target-root pathnames.

* Change find_disks: after mouting target root, check for
  /etc/fstab in target, and abort upgrade if not found.

* Change upgrade to check if the target root has /etc.old
  before renaming the target /etc -> /etc.old.  If found, abort.
  (may indicates a failed upgrade.)

*  Add save_etc(). saves target /etc as /etc.old, then copies back
   config files we might want during upgrade, in case target is current root.

* Fix logic that fscks and mounts disks. Use subroutines to
  fsck with a warning message and ok() on continue.  Same for doing mounts.

* Fix bug in extract_dist(). Do NOT do target prefixing on the dist_dir,
  since we didn't do target prefixing when mounting it.
  (At least, NFS does't.)

* Add function to  sanity-check target root. 
   Call after upgrade/install  is done.

* Change MSG_realdir to print the strerror() of any errors.
  Change target_chdir() to check if chdir() returns -1 and return errno.

* Make sure /dev exists before cd'ing there and running MAKEDEV.

* Use target_fopen() and fprintf() to write network state to disk,
  to avoid inadvertent shell escapes.

* Fix silly typo in append_to_target_file. (maybe add shell quotes?)
