The kernel configs already support this, so with a boot floppy or a utility
like booteasy, the user should be able to install and boot off the second drive.
Hurrah.
way I'm going to allow this to be set to secure. People blow their
password files away all the time, and I am not at all keen to lose the
ability to get them recovered with the simple expedient of a single-user
boot.
Without this entry init.bsdi don't ask root password when it goes
to sigle-user. This entry must present here in any case,
subject of arguing can be only default mode, I mean
"secure" or "insecure" here. Please consider this entry
like template and change "insecure" to "secure" if you
are _shure_, but not back out whole line.

based originally on work by David Greenman and adapted to FreeBSD
(and cleaned up a bit) by myself. It supports the IBM Credit Card
Adapter for the IBM Thinkpad, and I've had no trouble making it work
on my Toshiba T1910 with a National `InfoMover' NE4100 PCMCIA ethernet
card (I'm commiting this message through it right now :-).
This is actually sneaking it in after feature-freeze, but it's just
too useful to pass up! As always, necessity is a mother.

fixes NULL pointer bugs when linking mono and nested X servers.

a few variable names have chaged (desc -> fd), and the formatting has
changed which should make it much easier to track his sources.
I tested 'make world' for /usr/src and X twice with these changes.
1. Properly use ${.CURDIR} now instead of hardcoded relative dirs.
2. Use ${BINOWN} and ${BINGRP} everywhere instead of root/wheel
3. Add target for copying over EXTRACT scripts (and add them here).
4. Start thinking about crunched floppy target (not in yet, next commit).
Paul Kranenburg's description:
ld is in error here, assuming that symbols with N_EXT set always have an
entry in the (global) symbol table: this is not the case for C++ generated
constructor/destructor symbols. I can reproduce your failure by fudging
a "multiply defined" constructor symbol by hand. Checking for `g == NULL'
seems to be a ok as a fence for now.
So:
for now, in do_file_warnings() we check if g == NULL, before trying to generate
any warning messages. This prevents a NULL pointer dereference.
called with -K-Keoptions -Kioptions. This should fix the problem with
$Id$ still getting changed.
I am also install both ncvs and ocvs on freefall with this change as
ocvs still had the bug with -I \! which I fixed but did not reinstall.
Deleted commented-out line which would start mountd; that's not
the right pplace to do it (don't confuse the users).
Should probablyhave uncommented rpc.rstatd, but didn't.
initializing it to 0 in the floppy boot case. This allows my Toshiba
1910 laptop to finally boot, and may help out other machines cursed
with early Phoenix BIOS's as well.
The configure function now tells the user to type "man 5 resolver"
for more info on resolv.conf, but mentions that the bindist must
be fully installed before this can be done (actually a user won't
have reached this stage if he doesn't have an installed bindist ;-)
