Bring in Kris Moore's pc-sysinstall shell script from PC-BSD. This

shell script is the back end logic necessary for an installer.  It
contains both query routines to allow a front-end installer to present
reasonable choices to the user and also action routines which allow
the front end installer to put a FreeBSD distribution onto a disk.  It
supports installing onto the usual suspects, as well as advanced
features like Mirroring, ZFS, Encryprion and GPT labels.

While this is only the back-end of the installer, it can do unattended
scripted installations.  In PC-BSD's world view, all installations are
scripted and all the front-end does is write the script.  As such, it
is useful in its own right.

This has been extensively tested over the past several releases of
PC-BSD.  However, differences between that environment and FreeBSD
suggest there will be a period of shake-out while those differences
are discovered and corrected.

A text-based front-end is in the works.  For the GUI-based front-end,
you can use the PC-BSD distribution.

Kris' BSDcan paper on pc-sysinstall is linked off his talk on the
BSDcan site:
	http://www.bsdcan.org/2010/schedule/events/173.en.html

The man page is written by Josh Paetzel, and I wrote the Makefiles for
the FreeBSD integration.  Kris wrote the rest.

This represents version r7010 in the PC-BSD repo.

+# pc-autoinstall.conf example
+# $FreeBSD$
+#
+# Usage: Modify these variables, and copy the file to 
+# /boot/pc-autoinstall.conf on your PC-BSD installation medium
+#
+# The conf will then be read at bootup, and your automated
+# install will take place
+##################################################################
+
+# Where the pc-sysinstall main config is located
+# Can be either a file on the booted CD / DVD / USB media, 
+# or a remote file on http / ftp
+#
+# The value %%NIC_MAC%% is special, and will be substituted with 
+# the macaddress of the enabled NIC from DHCP or manually set
+# with 'nic_config:'
+##################################################################
+
+# Examples:
+# pc_config: ftp://192.168.0.2/cust-install.cfg
+# pc_config: http://192.168.0.2/cust-install.cfg
+# pc_config: http://192.168.0.2/%%NIC_MAC%%.cfg
+# pc_config: /boot/cust-install.cfg
+
+# Set this to yes if we should confirm before doing an install
+# This should normally be set to yes, otherwise booting the wrong
+# disk will result in a system wipe
+# confirm_install: no 
+confirm_install: yes
+
+# Set the command to run post-install, usually best to run shutdown
+# but this can be replaced with any other command / script you wish
+# to execute post-install
+# shutdown_cmd: shutdown -p now
+
+# Options for the network setup, should the cfg need to be fetched
+# from a remote location, only necessary when using ftp or http
+##################################################################
+
+# Special option, will attempt dhcp on all found NICs
+# until the file can be fetched, or we run out of interfaces
+# nic_config: dhcp-all
