Added UEFI specific fix - we need to apply different kernel configurations for 32-bit and 64-bit targets. Tested the build process (works fine), UEFI boot from CD (works fine), BIOS boot from CD (works fine) and EFI boot from HDD after manual installation (works fine). The installer part is still not UEFI ready.

Added EFI support. Manually tested it in 64-bit mode. Not tested in 32-bit mode. The installer is BIOS based and needs to be reworked for EFI support. Manuall HDD installation (64-bit, EFI) works fine.

Added simple installer for the whole OS. Note that this installer depends on 'extlinux' which comes as 32-bit binary. The installer works fine but the dynamic libraries need better handling for 64-bit host machines. Most probably additional 32-bit 'glibc' build will be required in order to generate the proper libraries.

Fixed runtime issue with the latest "Links" text browser. Updated all components with their latest stable versions. Minor update on the Felix start-up script. Documentation updates. Note that the scripts still need better documentation, especially the "overlay" related scripts.

Config cleanup - all overlay software is disabled by default (needs even more cleanup). Added 'todo' note to refactor the ISO generation script. Updated the kernel to the current stable version.

Otherwise boot fails with:
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs or unknown-block(0,0)

The tty ANSI code for the welcome message is set to 0 (disabled) because VirtualBox seems to execute 'respawn' tasks along with 'once' tasks (concurrency issue). However, in QEMU this feature works perfectly fine.

BusyBox and glibc now use separate object/install/prepare folders. Kernel and initramfs are reconfigured to use XZ compression. Added more CFLAGS for smaller output size. As result the fina ISO image is significantly smaller than before.
