Some rudimentary documentation that mkarchiso -h doesn't
quite cover. Poor humor comes free with the deal.

We should clean up some stuff but not actually muddle with what is installed
by packages. Leave static libs if they were installed, and leave include
files so we can actually build a package from the live CD if we want to.

For now all it handles is bind mounting and squashfs
images that have to overlay at the root. The config
file syntax is obviously borrowed from fstab. This
is far from final, much of it could use some cleanup.

If asked to do so, mkarchiso simply copies a
directory full of addons to the iso root.
On boot, after union-mounting /real_root, the
archiso hook will look for and source an addon
config file. This file is a plain old bash
script, which makes it quite flexible. The addon
config should be written to take care of any
mounting that needs to be done, an example of
typical tasks is also included.

Remove the need for a configuration file. Some of the command line options
had to be switched up a bit in order to do this. Also simplify the package
list- only one package list is needed, not a directory, and additional
packages can be specified on the command line.

Add some of the bin images we say we have into the GIT repo so that our
ISO actually builds with these files. All latest versions were fetched:
* diag2.img: 19-Feb-2007 (no version number)
* memdisk.bin: built from syslinux-3.52
* memtest86+: 1.70
* x86_test: 0.10a

Add some output redirects again to make the script a bit more silent. Full
verbosity can still be had with the -v option.

If we add a root entry in our default fstab, we will be able to remount
root without issues in the initscripts, even if we don't have access to
the original mount locations and such.

* Get rid of unnecessary trailing slash on BOOT_MOUNT variable
* Fix -eq/= mixup- we are comparing strings, not numbers
* Don't unmount /dev, as it was never mounted

Some new eyes on the code, and finding some new things to fix up. A lot of
documentation type stuff with some code commenting. Make the message and
echo stuff a bit more consistant. Move the UID check later so that we can
see help as a normal user. Other small fixups.

You could get stuck in the keyboard menu with no way out, fix that.

Turns out /proc gets mounted after rc.conf is sourced for the first time,
so /proc/cmdline isn't such a great place to be getting parameters from
in rc.conf. Use CMDLINE env variable instead, which is set to mostly the
same thing (well the part we care about, at the least).
Also cmdline_param wasn't breaking out of the loop properly.

This implies a memory requirement for the running system, since
the sqfs image needs to be able to fit onto the ramdisk, which
breaks lowmem systems like qemu.
