(Eyes of the daemon not synced and the motd not displayed properly
on black-on-white screens): The first one was not valid anymore
since the text and logo were swapped already, the second one is
fixed by resetting the whole colourscheme instead of only the
background colour.
(also removed svn:keywords from motd since it doesn't have the
string $FreeBSD$ in it)

Use the (yet to be committed) sysctl variable kern.bootdevname
to derive the device name, fallback to /dev/fd0 if kern.bootdevname
is unset or not available.
closer to doing "the right thing".
The structure is now the following:
* /etc/rc (from MFS) loads the rest of /etc and /root from
/fd and then from floppy (if present), then transfers control
to /etc/rc1
* /etc/rc1 loads defaults from /etc/rc.conf.defaults, tries to
set the hostname basing on the MAC address of the first ethernet
interface, and then sources /etc/rc.conf and /etc/rc.conf.local
for local configurations
* The rest of the startup process is then performed (rc.network and so on).
Everything except the initial /etc/rc (from MFS) can be overridden with
a local version loaded from floppy. But in most cases, you should only need
to customize the following files in /etc:
rc.conf rc.firewall hosts
Previously there were a number of inconsistencies in the calling
between files, and also a lot of clutter in rc.conf and rc.firewall.
Also, "rc1" was called "rc" and would overwrite the initial /etc/rc
from MFS, making it really hard to figure out what was going on in
case of bugs.
refuses to start if it does not find a matching entry for the terminal
type.
My impression is that this is a problem in the shell, because
at least on PicoBSD images, the shell itself coredumps.
Anyways, this is the quickest fix i can come up with.
This must have to do with the use of devfs in -CURRENT, but i
have no idea when the devfs is actually mounted (is it a
side effect of mount -t nonfs or what ?) and when /dev/fd0c becomes
available.
For the time being, let's use this hack. Once I understand how devfs
works, this can be reverted back to the previous value, and also the
part of the build script which creates device entries can be nuked.
This is for -current only.
rc and login.conf files from the /etc directory on the floppy.
This prevents the overwrite yes/no prompt from occuring in gzip.
(some PicoBSD disks use gzip and some use minigzip, so the gzip -f flag (force)
is not an option. minigzip has a different meaning for the -f flag.}
