Slinky now works for both the 7.2 and 7.3 releases. The user is prompted 
for the version to install by the setup script.

Many changes, see the updated changelog and the readme file for details.

Major changes:
o Rewrite to clean up scripts.
o Ability to install from multiple CDs.
o Ability to install from rpm files on the hard drive.
   (Not from a partition that will be part of the install, however.)
o More error checking.
o Rather than exiting, the installer will prompt to retry a failed mount.
o Minimally tested for hardrive image, cdrom, and harddrive rpm installs.
   (I've done several installs via various methods, they appear to work.)
o Install of base packages, network packages, sendmail packages, and
   openssh packages results in no dependency problems. Please, testers-
   try various combinations of packages and run rpm -Va when done. If
   you find any problems, please be sure to let me know!

Next project, tackling the snake. ;)
