fb66ecc4a2 Make it more obvious where to find RELNOTESng source files if someone went
browsing in the old release notes location.

b69cfdb36a RELNOTESng is now the default for -CURRENT release builds. (Floppy
images get TXT renderings only; CDROM and FTP areas get TXT and HTML.)

Remove the old *.TXT release documentation files, as they
have been subsumed into RELNOTESng.  The new layout will greatly
facilitate their maintenence and help keep them internally consistent.

c2ceacfa6a Add support for gigabit ethernet cards based on the NatSemi DP83820
and DP83821 gigabit ethernet MAC chips and the NatSemi DP83861 10/100/1000
copper PHY. There are a whole bunch of very low cost cards available with
this chipset selling for $150USD or less. This includes the SMC9462TX,
D-Link DGE-500T, Asante GigaNIX 1000TA and 1000TPC, and a couple cards
from Addtron.

This chip supports TCP/IP checksum offload, VLAN tagging/insertion.
2048-bit multicast filter, jumbograms and has 8K TX and 32K RX FIFOs.
I have not done serious performance testing with this driver. I know
it works, and I want it under CVS control so I can keep tabs on it.
Note that there's no serious mutex stuff in here yet either: I need
to talk more with jhb to figure out the right way to do this. That
said, I don't think there will be any problems.

This driver should also work on the alpha. It's not turned on in
GENERIC.
