requires complications to adjust the offsets to relative when a block
containing the label is read and back to absolute when such a block is
written. The adjustment is not made on the whole disk slice.
Don't allow setting the offset of partition C to nonzero in in-core labels.
This will cause some (nonstandard) disktab entries to fail. They will
need to be changed to have relative offsets (and no partitions outside
of the slice).
Don't write protect the (nonexistent) label on the whole disk slice.
Writing labels and bootstraps should work right now (except if there is
no DOSpartition table).
just thinking about it.
Two changes need to be made to allow 'config kernel swap generic' to
work properly without requiring any compile-time flags:
/usr/src/usr.sbin/config/mkswapconf.c: we need to define a dummy stub
for the setconf() function to replace the one in swapgeneric.c that
isn't available in non-generic configurations.
/usr/src/sys/i386/i386/autoconf.c: the -a boot flag causes setroot()
to be skipped and lets setconf() prompt the user for a root device.
If you skip setroot() in a non-generic kernel, you could get severely
hosed. To avoid this, we silently ignore the -a flag if rootdev != NODEV.
(rootdev is always initialized to NODEV in swapgeneric.c, so if
we find that rootdev is something other than NODEV, we know we're
not using a generic configuration.)
probation.. Another vanishing act and I won't hesitate to nuke this back
out again. He hasn't been heard from very much since he was over here to
visit! :-)
2) bump reference counts by 2 instead of 1 so that an object deallocate
doesn't try to recursively collapse the object.
3) mark pages renamed during the collapse as dirty so that their contents
are preserved.

in an (unlikely) border case (maxgroups==1 and the user is on
an /etc/group line for the same group and that group only ...).
Now this case is dealt with as before ...
Test for correct execution of cache test script by NCR,
and give meaningful error description if it fails.
(A cache problem was reported before.)
Don't wait forever for cache test to complete (to protect
against faulty hardware).

chown to root is usually bogus because mknod had to be run by root to
create the inode. Setting the group explictly is currently necessary
because MAKEDEV does nothing to ensure that its working directory has
a suitable group.
Driver authors! Please fix any bogons in MAKEDEV that involve your
drivers. The sound devices are still world writable...
