0e52eb5ac5 Clarify that overriding the -h/-D flags through flags in device.hints 
only works for sio(4) but not for uart(4) which no longer has this flag.

d3f4dbc513 Let boot(8) refer to the uart(4) serial driver, which is the replacement 
for the obsolete sio(4) driver.

08b9134350 Replace "/etc/make.conf" with references to make.conf(5) 
where applicable.  The main reason for this change is that
the location of make.conf is not constant and can be
modified via __MAKE_CONF.  This change also improves
hyper-text linkage in our manpages.

a00a259113 Add the ability to specify the boot2 serial console speed in 
/boot.config or on the "boot:" prompt line via a "-S<speed>" flag,
e.g. "-h -S19200". This adds about 50 bytes to the size of boot2
and required a few other small changes to limit the size impact.
This changes only affects boot2; there are further loader changes
to follow.

52501c5ede Fixed desctiptions of some options: 
- Document better what the -C option means.
- The -c option is currently a no-op.
- The -D and -h options do not allow switching between
  single/dual console modes and internal/video consoles.
  (This used to be true for the old biosdisk boot code,
  but now they just force the multiple consoles mode and
  serial console, respectively.)

9f4709d67c Refrence bsdlabel.8 and bsdlabel.5 rather then the obsolete disklabel.8 
and disklabel.5.  Refrencing bsdlabel.5 is somewhat bogus as it is not
connected to the build and is mostly unwritten at this point.

9e09a91233 Clarify boot.8 (i386 version) a bit, so that people know 
where boot.config needs to reside.  Also change /kernel
to /boot/loader, as that is the apparent default now.  This
man page probably requires more updates.

28703190c5 Add new boot flag to i386 boot: -p. 
This flag adds a pausing utility. When ran with -p, during the kernel
probing phase, the kernel will pause after each line of output.
This pausing can be ended with the '.' key, and is automatically
suspended when entering ddb.

This flag comes in handy at systems without a serial port that either hang
during booting or reser.

Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
