peter 322f2ad0c1 Add some notes about the globalness of certain things like interrupts
and ISA DMA channels (ie: on most PCI systems, they are not.. they are
on the ISA side of the PCI-ISA bridge and could be duplicated if there
were multiple PCI-ISA bridges, say in a laptop docking station), while
the APIC resources would be global on SMP systems.
Also, revert a previous change, change some printfs back to panics.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on: $Id: README,v 1.13 1998/09/13 09:38:34 markm Exp $

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 and the contents of /etc.  Please see the top of the Makefile
in this directory 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).
