-  strings if it is missing

-- added list_of_NFS_devices_and_mounts()
-- try /dev/st0 if no tape specified at all
-- change '64k' to TAPE_BLOCK_SIZE
-- improved find_cdrom_device()
-- if cdrecord not found then find_cdrom_device() returns 1
-- if disaster recovery mode then don't ask for CD-ROM's /dev entry;
-  assume /dev/cdrom
-- if restoring data then ask for CD-ROM's /dev entry (not its SCSI node)
-- run_program_and_log_output() now takes boolean operator to specify
-  whether it will log its activities in the event of _success_
-- changed sort -n +4 to sort -s +4 (Troff)
-- ask if user's kernel is sane; if 'no' then use FAILSAFE
-- ask user to confirm the tape/CD device name
-- if restoring (not archiving) then don't try to find CD-ROM's SCSI
-  node; try to find its /dev entry instead
-- better detection of biggest partition
-
-08/01 - 08/31
-- fixed verify bug --- CD#1 was being verified again & again & ...
-- detect boot loader + device; if not detectible then _ask_
-- if run interactively, assume tape size is irrelevant & don't ask
-  for it; Mondo should handle end-of-tape gracefully now
-- worked on handling unknowng media size
-- added interactively_obtain_media_parameters_from_user()
-- when trying to mount CD-ROM, find_and_mount_actual_cd() will
-  now call find_cdrom_device() to try to find the /dev entry first
-- fixed serious bug in zero_out_a_device()
-- cleaned up some log_it() calls
-- fixed minor bug in find_cdrom_device()
-- better at distinguishing between live filesystem and ramdisk
