4bd2a978f6 Restructure the Sparc installation instructions to
- get rid of the 4th level headings
- seperate the actions required to prepare the installation (getting
  the CD, settings up the various daemons, ...) from the actual
  installation

Translation teams: This patch moves some paragraphs around and changes
a lot of <sectX> headers, but does not contain any content changes in
the strict sense of the word (i.e. I did not rewrite paragraphs yet).
There were no changes to the indentation, either.

f6b1b0cc33 If NO_LANGCODE_IN_DESTDIR is defined, don't put the language code in
DESTDIR.  This avoids redundant information in the path when DOCDIR
points to some directory that already implies (or specifies) a certain
language.  This is the case with the web site, where the release notes
are already installed under a language-specific directory.  This
behavior is not being made mandatory because it might still be useful
to install all the translations in one directory, such as during
testing, or in a hypothetical release notes archive.  Furthermore, it
is not being made the default because that breaks consistency with
stuff under doc/.

d0b8716702 Try to make some sense out of the mess that used to be INSTALL.TXT.
1.  Bring floppies.sgml section in-line into install.sgml, where it
makes more sense.

2.  Slightly reorganize some sections of Installation section and
do some wordsmithing.

3.  Update distribution layout to reflect RELNOTESng and new compat
distributions.

4.  Update upgrade file list from 4-STABLE.

5.  It's been a long time since 2.2.X; get rid of instructions dealing
with "new" handling of compatability slices and fix up other references
in the text.

6.  Hunt down and kill emoticons with extreme prejudice.  Try to
tone down the use of exclamation points.

7.  Cross-reference new and improved Installation chapter in
Handbook.

8.  Add a proper abstract for this document.

7450e06249 Change the way the value of DESTDIR is determined for the release
notes build. Instead of having doc.relnotes.mk make a guess, hardcode
quite a bit (but as little as possible) in Makefile.inc's sprinkled
strategicly throughout the tree.  This has the advantage of actually
working properly (which is a Good Thing(tm)), and the disadvantages of
more files in the repository and more hardcoded paths (which are both
Bad Things(tm)).

stylesheets (to handle different values of the arch= attribute) are gone.

703471ec7f Build system:
o Define a RELN_ROOT variable which points to the root of the relnotes
  tree (i.e., src/release/doc).
o By default, define DOC_PREFIX in terms of RELN_ROOT; this gives a
  bigger chance of finding the doc/ tree without help in the form of
  setting DOC_PREFIX on the command line.
o Respect DOCDIR; `make install` works now.
