Luigi Rizzo 107a6eaf0a Major cleanup of PicoBSD startup scripts, which now should be
closer to doing "the right thing".

The structure is now the following:

  * /etc/rc (from MFS) loads the rest of /etc and /root from
    /fd and then from floppy (if present), then transfers control
    to /etc/rc1

  * /etc/rc1 loads defaults from /etc/rc.conf.defaults, tries to
    set the hostname basing on the MAC address of the first ethernet
    interface, and then sources /etc/rc.conf and /etc/rc.conf.local
    for local configurations

  * The rest of the startup process is then performed (rc.network and so on).

Everything except the initial /etc/rc (from MFS) can be overridden with
a local version loaded from floppy. But in most cases, you should only need
to customize the following files in /etc:

	rc.conf    rc.firewall    hosts

Previously there were a number of inconsistencies in the calling
between files, and also a lot of clutter in rc.conf and rc.firewall.
Also, "rc1" was called "rc" and would overwrite the initial /etc/rc
from MFS, making it really hard to figure out what was going on in
case of bugs.
