significant enhancements migration and installation.

retrieval of the install key)
- enhanced migration support
- all systemfiles have currency with the latest eCS MT level
- setboot has been replaced by a custom version of DFSee which 
prevents the corruption of other volumes in certain situations

- possibility to verify media integrity before installation

This beta is accessible from the 'Your Downloads' page for all
