Kazutaka YOKOTA 124ff4169d The syscons driver doesn't really check the presence of the display
adapter during the system boot. It always assumes there is at least a
monochrome adapter.

This is rather strange assumption. If there is no dispaly adapter, the
console driver cannot be any good...

In this patch, scinit() is split into two parts; the first part is
now called scvidprobe() which will detect the presence of video card
at the CGA or MONO buffer address and returns TRUE if found. It is
called during sccnprobe() and scprobe(). Both will fail if no video
card is found.

The second part, whose name stays the same as before, scinit(), is
called from sccninit() and scattach() to complete initialization of
the found video card.

The keyboard probe code is moved from scprobe() to sckbdprobe();
scprobe() now calls scvidprobe() and sckbdprobe() to carry out device
probe. (This is rather a cosmetic change, but it sure makes the code
look better organized.)

The problem pointed out by Joerg.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on: $Id$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel.  Please see the top of the Makefile for more information on
the standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel with config(8) is a somewhat more involved process,
documentation for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file LINT contains entries for all possible devices, not
just those commonly used, and is meant more as a general reference
than an actual kernel configuration file (a kernel built from it
wouldn't even run).
