This is the new unified bootstrap, sometimes known previously as the 'three-stage' bootstrap. There are a number of caveats with the code in its current state: - The i386 bootstrap only supports booting from a floppy. - The kernel and kld do not yet know how to deal with the extended information and module summary passed in. - PnP-based autodetection and demand loading of modules is not implemented. - i386 ELF kernel loading is not ready yet. - The i386 bootstrap is loaded via an ugly blockmap. On the alpha, both net- and disk-booting (SRM console machines only) is supported. No blockmaps are used by this code. Obtained from: Parts from the NetBSD/i386 standalone bootstrap.

NOTE ANY CHANGES YOU MAKE TO THE BOOTBLOCKS HERE. The format of this
file is important. Make sure the current version number is on line 6.
Bump up version as a result of the recent changes to kernel path, and boot-conf&boot semantic changes. Reminded by: peter (even though he doesn't know it)

1.1: New semantics for finding the kernel, new boot.
This is real released software, let people think that.

1.0: Released working DEC Alpha version.
Bump loader version due to FICL (duh!) and copyin, copyout, setenv&cia.

0.3: Set/getenv&cia, copyin/out.
0.2: FICL added to Alpha.

0.1: Initial i386 version, germinated from the NetBSD i386
standalone, but enormously modified.
