Notes:
In MirrorList mode, the MIRRORLISTFILE is always downloaded first.
A change to a mirror mode (MirrorList or MirrorClient) will change
configuration, but mirroring will wait until HOSTTIMER expires
before executing the desired hostmode.
Unlike edje, Soloist2, Mirage, and Duet products, "client" mode still
allows the FTP server to run.
A drive space management system is based on HOSTMODE that will detect
when there is about 200 Meg of free space and remove files until there
is 300 Meg of free space. In MirrorList, files not in the list but
present on the system will be deleted to meet 300 Meg. In MirrorClient,
oldest files found on the system will be removed to meet 300 Meg.
Drive space is not checked in Client mode.
