baf849c9b0 Two new sections:
* Kernel configuration, from Jake Hamby <jehamby@lightside.com>
    I'd like as many people as possible to give this one a good
    check before 2.1 goes out the door.

  * Routing, from Coranth Gryphon <gryphon@healer.com>

A bazillion formatting tweaks (only 13 bazillion more to go!)

164f78d7da A first rough cut at an abridged version of the handbook for use
on the installation floppy.

Also pulled the entity definitions for the various sections out
of handbook.sgml and put them in their own file since they are used
both by handbook.sgml (the full version) and boothelp.sgml (the
abridged version).

1e30867d53 Start populating the handbook with useful cross reference targets.
All cross reference labels start with name of the file that contains
them.  A label for the top section level is simply the name of the
file (omitting the .sgml).  Other references within the file append a
colon and onother name.  For example, the label on the mailing list
section in the file eresources.sgml is eresources:mail.  This gives
each file its own cross reference namespace.
