b20ea7bdbc Start to fill in amd64 hardware notes based on info from peter.
Translators should be warned that this is somewhat of a moving
target, and so might want to consider holding off working on
this document.

f5ad57db26 General update of the Early Adopter's Guide. Too many changes to
list here, but they basically fall into two categories:  1) Make
the document less 5.0-centric (and more applicable to the state of any
5.X before the RELENG_5 branch) and 2) Update for the current state of
5.X, in anticipation of re-issuing this document as a part of the 5.1
release documentation.

7fe19d63ec Slightly tweak the rc update text, since things changed slightly after
I sent the first draft to Bruce. Remove rc.sendmail from the list, since
it was a mistake on my part to remove it from the base, which I've now
corrected. Add the rc.${MACHINE_ARCH} for arch's besides i386.

While I'm here, do a completely trivial re-capitalization of rcNG. :)

Thanks to Bruce for cleaning up my humble first draft.

bab2e18fa0 Slight reorganization of the release notes: Make the contributed
software section and ports/packages infrastructure section be sect2
level sections (instead of sect3 under userland).  Combine the
kernel/contributed and userland/contributed entries into the new sect2
contributed section.

The main point of doing this is that the distinction between kernel
and userland is largely irrelevent for contributed software, and
doesn't apply well to things such as IPFilter and KAME, which have
both kernel and userland components.
