Sheldon Hearn 43d1c72a8b Forced commit to provide background for previous delta:
There are two reasons why automounting remote filesystems can't be
delayed until after network initialization:

1) The right way would be to teach mount to distinguish between network
   filesystems and local filesystems.  This is not as easy as it was for
   df, because the latter only has to cope with filesystems for which
   kernel support is already present.

2) The easy way (see rev 1.268 of src/etc/rc for an extensible example)
   is made awkward by a problem reported by dougb and addressed in
   rev 1.286 of src/etc/rc, where mount_nfs misuses vfsload() and does
   not correctly arrage for the loading of nfsclient support.

Since neither of these problems looks like it will be solved before
4.5-RELEASE, the previous delta to this file provides a safety belt,
which I'd like to encourage folks to use by applying a change to
sysinstall, described in a message sent to the freebsd-audit list
(Message-ID <5062.1008868549@axl.seasidesoftware.co.za>).

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

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, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  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 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.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you have to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

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 NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
