This removes -i8192 from genext2fs default, this just causes problems, the defaults built into
genext2fs work alot better.

$ENV{RELEASE} is now initialized every time a check is run on the template.
Information can come from three sources, the kernel version returned from
a selected kernel in the main section, the user defined kernel version
in the ABS, or `uname -r`. User defined kernel version overrides the kernel.
The root_fs needs to be built in relation to the actual kernel modules
it will run on. Previously the $RELEASE value wasn't returned properly
because of some bugs in kernel_version_check. This has been fixed.

This does a great job of prompting the user if they have root privileges for lilo, they may
continue or stop the process. This uses mtab().

This almost creates a successful normal user boot disk .. but doesn't find /dev/fd0 despite
its existence. Also, rootdisk isn't created yet. Getting pretty close.

This makes the default replacement directory permanent, rather than calling it over and
over again. Right, now busyboxes ldd is being used in Yard.pm for some experiments.

Added -r0 to genext2fs default for non-root user. Now if a genext2fs would
work for a non-root user, even though it appears exactly the same as the
root_fs created by root with the same template .. it just doesn't work.

This does it! Now non-root users can create complete boot/root sets ..the
only catch is lilo, but working that one out.

If the ARS is never opened, $entry_advanced[3] eq "", so now when $um == 0
it defaults to the value for BOOT_DEVICE.

This is better because it checks to see if the real device is mounted,
ofcourse this is only necessary when lilo is used.

Almost have genextfs done for boot, now just have to use a smaller kernel,
and put everything somewhere else besides $mnt, so that lilo can do its
thing on a real device assuming fstab is edited for a non-root user.
