Now gbootroot is functioning well as either a GUI or CLI in relation to whether or not arguments are added. Options.pm allows things to be checked before interpreting so that a determination can be made what mode to go in.

This is the start of giving gbootroot some commandline functionality similar to
bootroot, but more specific with the primary goal of allowing root_fs
prototyping without the use of the GUI.

Improved the parameter explanation .. ramdisk_size really wasn't crucial, and
removed mem=16M as a default, first of all this is already standard, and secondly
it may cause problems for users unaware of the MTD Emulators default settings.

This goes a step farther an allows ubd to be ubd\d{1] rather then confined to
1, however, mtd and mtdblock will be 0 for the first module invocation.

Yard won't attempt to make /dev on compressed fs and ro if /dev is a symbolic
link, won't complain when there is an unitialized value in concatation in
Boot, Ramdisk_size is always 4096 for mtdram, this setting isn't really
necessary, but is left anyways.

This is a new tool for making TUN/TAP interfaces persistent and non-persistent.
Basically, to allow an adm to assign a tap device to a user, but not allowing
a user to change any aspects of the host side of the interface .. anotherwards

This is technically a root fs, so putting it in this directory. This is

More mem adjustments, this time to the spin wheel, 1024 for 1, 8192 for 2,
these are great setting for mtdram .. <16M files can use the small adj.
>16M should zero down with 3 and increment with 2nd button.

A few more improvements to the mtd code to handle memory better 16M increments
for mtdram, will probably do a similiar thing for blkmtd which appears to be
exponential 16 32 64 etc .. ofcourse at 128 things can get narly.

This pretty much covers it, have both mtdram and blkmtd working, just need to
