Hi
here the changelog:
i changed everything to fit to new core repository,
2 isos left ftp iso and core iso, the rest was setup/archboot changes to 
achieve this.
- I cleaned up our documentation, to fit to those stuff
  please read it and tell me what is missing or wrong.

GENERAL:
- disabled arch_addons hook by default, it is triggered by arch-addons
  boot parameter
- Ram usage increased to 160MB (FTP-ISO,CORE-ISO arch boot image)
- Ram usage 64 MB (CORE-ISO lowmem boot image)
 
FIXES:
- fixed the nasty /dev mount bug
- fixed the /dev/ttyS0 errors if no serial port is installed in the system
- fixed repositories in install environment to fit to both architectures
- fixed km to not show broken chars after exit

NEW STUFF:
- added pptpclient to install environment
- added sdparm to install environment
- added all free wireless drivers to install environment
- added intel wireless drivers to install environment which will be activated
  by intel-wireless boot parameter
- added hosts.deny and hosts.allow to config dialog
- added licenses to install environment
- added new lowmem boot image to core iso
  stripped everything out that is not necessary for installation

TODO:
- update archboot on cvs
- update documentation for lowmem image
