Is XFS is being selected as file system, the minimum size requirement is
300 MiB. In order to keep it to a round number, this patch increases the
size of /boot to 512 MiB.
To keep all systems consistent, we will also do this on systems that are
being formatted using different file systems.
Fixes: #13077 - xfs cannot installed anymore because boot is to small

On some installations, we are running out of space on the /boot
partition due to growing sizes of the ramdisk and the kernel.
To accomodate for that and have room to grow in the future, we increase
the size of the partition to 256 MiB.

ReiserFS is an old file system which has not been actively maintained in
the Linux kernel for a long time. It is potentially going to be removed
soon which is why we shouldn't encourage people to create new
installations with ReiserFS any more.
This patch removes support for ReiserFS from the installer.
We should keep it enabled in the kernel for as long as it is available,
but we will have to encourage users potentially to re-install on a
different file system.
Since ReiserFS isn't very popular any more, I don't think that there
will be many users left.

Sometimes, we restore a backup that has been created earlier before
exclude files have been changed. To avoid overwriting those files, we
will consider the exlude list upon restore.

Some paths might not exist on some systems which caused the installer to
abort the installation. This patch makes the installer ignore this
condition.

This variable was not initialized on systems where EFI was not
in use. Therefore the generated parted command line was not
valid and caused the installation to abort.

This allows that a system will boot IPFire even when
no boot entry is configured in the EFI BIOS

On 64 bit systems, the installation fails if a previous XFS FS
is detected on the partition an EXT4 FS should be formatted.
This does not happen on 32 bit systems.

The first disk of the system will automatically be used and
a standard installation will be done. After that is done, the
system will reboot into the freshly installed system and execute
setup.
