* mergerd r3178 from branches/2.0-stable:
* fixed linuxrc.c MS_MOVE mounts for systems with more strict pointer
checking in the kernel (like sparc)

further improved linuxrc: frst try iso9660, a trygets function, use waitpid,
trywait function and a tryexeclp macro, exchangeable
tar compression program argument ...

stage2small-progs.diff: include disktype _and tail_ (I
somehow missed it in the previous patch) in stage 2 small.
Incremential: apply after bzip2-ed-bootdisk only.
linuxrc-opt.diff: optimize the device scanning a bit.

Looking at lsof(1) output, it seems that unmounting of
/old_root/dev fails because of the kernel daemons keeping
/dev/console open, which doesn't seem very proper to me.
No matter, the right way to move a filesystem IMO is with
mount --move, not by umounting-then-mounting it. The only
drawback is that MS_MOVE has to be #defined [to 8192].
Mounting initrd's /bin as /usr/local/bin was quite dumb
of me I must admit. It's much easier, if needed, to leave
/old_root and put /old_root/bin in $PATH. That's not FHS
compliant, so s/old_root/local/g * if you wish.
2nd_stage_small.tar.gz is created with tar | gzip -9
because it's size is very near the limit (that is, with
mine linked as shared, which currently gives a sig11).
Using .bz2 will be better, if approved by Rene/Clifford.
2nd_stage_small (re)boots/shutdowns with no errors, mount
lists the filesystems mounted properly and /old_root can
be unmounted, so 2nd_stage full should not display errors
as well. Now if there was anybody willing to fix mine...

This patch adds stone support to 2nd_stage_small (-text
only, no space for -dialog).
build_stage2.sh: [2nd_stage_small changes only]
- create local/bin to serve as a mountpoint for initrd/bin
- do not copy wget and ip (using the initrd ones)
- copy the programs required by stone and mkreiserfs
- copy the stone files and create a head replacement script
linuxrc.c:
- mount (MS_BIND) initrd's bin under stage 2 /usr/local/bin
- fail if mount fails && /bin/gzip does not exist [= small]
linuxrc2.sh:
- display a different startup message if dialog is missing
