the devices I once owned or contemplated purchasing .. )
(1) The ncr controller supports 53C810/815/825/860/875.
(2) Descrpitions of fxp0 and vx0 were missing.
(3) The ed driver supports SMC 8216 (`Elite Ultra') too.
(4) Add pseudo-device ccd.
won't be pulled into individual ports that include this file. ;)
(2) Document MOTIFLIB, it's not set in the ports Makefiles but is
important for Motif ports (already documented in the handbook).
(3) Add INSTALL_PROGRAM, INSTALL_SCRIPT, INSTALL_DATA, INSTALL_MAN as
"aliases" of the appropriate install command line, for use in *-install
targets.
Reviewed by: the ports list (item 3 only)
eg: options "SCSI_DELAY=15" should be options SCSI_DELAY=15, as config
knows about the "=" and splits it correctly into key=value for the #defines.
The only options that need quotes are those that have numbers as part of
the actual name, eg: "TUNE_1542" and "COMPAT_IBCS2".
pipe the man page source through before compressing or installing.
This can be used to do do (eg) sed substitution on man pages from
3rd party packages (in particular, ncurses and bind-4.9.4)
This should not affect anything already in the source tree.
address - Melbourne is a city in the state of Victoria, not vice versa! :-)
Also add reference to Greg Lehey's books in the appropriate section,
replace some redundant questions by pointers to the Handbook, replace
"look at this bit of the Handbook" pointers by URLs, clean up
inconsistent use of "one" and "you" and fix a couple of typos
introduced by my previous changes...
* Removed material that was duplicated in the installation instructions.
* Updated the address for an Australian supplier of CDROMs (supplied by
David Henshaw via Martin Butkus).
* Give more info about how to get started with the installation.
* Update references to 2.1.0 as "the latest release".
* Added pointer to a Web page explaining how to have multiple operating
systems on the same machine.
* Moved question about running DOS binaries out of the installation section.
* Added question re boot floppy not loading properly.
* Added explanation of disk geometry, moved things around so that "please
refer to the previous question" no longer sends the reader with a
non-booting system to a PLIP cable wiring diagram!
* Mention the time/space requirements for making a custom install floppy.
* Acknowledge a couple of people whose answers I've adapted in various
places (and who deserve credit anyway for answering so many questions!)
I forgot his name whilst typing in the commit message on the
port, and he wasn't in the handbook (I guessed wrong, using Marc
Van Kempen, sorry to both). Now, his name is in here and I
won't get mixed up again!
