dedicated" mode. This was specifying that there are 256 (illegal!)
heads on the disk. If bioses store that in a byte, and it gets truncated
to 0, then that almost certainly causes the infamous divide-by-zero
nightmare.
This is also most likely the reason why the Thinkpad T20/A20 series
were locking up when FreeBSD was installed. This is also the most likely
reason why a boot1 being present causes an IA64 box to lock up at boot.
(removing the "part4" stuff from boot1.s fixes the IA64 boxes and would
most likely have fixed the T20/A20 and some TP600E series thinkpads)
booted from it when doing an installkernel.
Only change kern.bootfile from ${DESTDIR}${KODIR}/${KERNEL_KO}
to ${DESTDIR}${KODIR}.old/${KERNEL_KO}, and only when we're renaming
a booted ${DESTDIR}${KODIR}/${KERNEL_KO} kernel.
a temporary fix so that we can compile kernels. I waited 30 minutes
for a response from the person who would likely know, but any longer
is too long to wait with breakage at ToT.
Set 'log_ipfw_denied' option if you want the old behaviour.

such a way that the name and the value of the variable(s) are separated
with `=' instead of the usual `: '. This is useful for producing output
that can be fed back to the sysctl utility (pasted to sysctl.conf, for
example).
