3.3-RELEASE sysinstall

>Description:

first submitted PR on this seemed to go missing, am resubmitting with 
more details anyway.

On completing the install, the user is asked to remove floppies from the
drive for the reboot.  This request should also ask the user to remove
CDROMs from the drives, as if the user is installing from a bootable
CDROM, they may find themselves booting off that after the reboot.

Similarly, if the CDROM is mounted, it should be unmounted before displaying
the message, as on some CDROM drives, the drive bay is locked to prevent
ejecting while the fs is mounted.  The result is that the user has to hit
the button *after* the reboot starts, but before it starts booting off the
cd.  This seems unfortunate and counter-intuitive.

>How-To-Repeat:

Discovered while forcing novice friend to install 3.3-RELEASE for me--
subject finished installing and couldn't figure out why it kept returning
to the install menu :-).

>Fix:
	
Patches not included, sorry :-).
