Merge pull request #255 from PartialVolume/Ping_server_and_wait #256
Various fixes to do with tftp/ftp transfers.
Fixes #242 Pauses for upto 30 seconds before launching nwipe if ftp/tftp transfers are being used. This is because if the user specified shredos_config="..." on the kernel command line in order to retrieve the nwipe.conf and nwipe_customers.csv files from a local ftp/tftp server, the server needs to be online before nwipe is launched. On some systems/networks the ethernet hardware initialisation and then DHCP requests can be slower than nwipe launching hence why we now ping the server to makesure it's online before launching nwipe.
Lots of improvements to error detection and handling for tftp
Improvments to the "shredos_autoreboot=enable" option. When this option is placed on the kernel command line shredos will reboot upon completion of wipes. --nowait option is appled by the scipt to nwipe so nwipe doesn't wait for user interaction before exiting. If the shredos_config="..." or shredos_output="..." kernel command line options have been added by the user, autoreboot and also autoshutdown will wait after exiting nwipe if any ftp/tftp errors occurred so the user can review the transfer log and decide on a course of action if necessary.
