build process in too many cases. Adding mtree to bootstrap-tools
to solve this breaks the upgrade path because mtree needs a
libc that has strtofflags and fflagstostr.
kernel config file.
- Add WORLD_FLAGS and KERNEL_FLAGS so you can build world and kernel with
extra make options such as -jX to speed up release builds.
- When building kernels, allow their hints to tag along, and use this to
install hints onto the boot floppy. Since the boot floppy doesn't load
loader.4th, we have to change device.hints to strip comments and change
each line to an explicit set command.
IPv6 configuration is only done by rtsol. Does someone really
need manual configuration? :-)
You can specify IPv6 DNS server as well.
We have only one server ftp7.jp.freebsd.org that speaks IPv6
in this time. ftp7.jp speaks IPv4 as well and also listed as
Japan #7.

- Small cleanups to kernel installs.
- Don't install kernel.config and loader.config on the boot floppy since
they haven't been used in quite some time.
src/release/{boot,fixit}_crunch.conf.
- Added machine specific fixit_crunch.conf for PC/AT and PC-98 to
src/release/$MACHINE.
- Use config file in src/release/$MACHINE if exist. If it does not exist,
use in src/release.
boot.flp and plain boot.flp.
- Clean up crunchgen related routine.
- Add PC-98 support.
TODO:
o Documentation
o Fix some messages for PC-98
o Decrease the size of fixit.flp to 1.2MB
o I18N (See: http://www.jp.FreeBSD.org/BootAsia/index.html)

distfiles to build the docproj port during release. Prior to this, the
distfiles were copied froom ${DISTFILES}. However, if like me, you needed
to store the distfiles in some directory other than /usr/ports/distfiles,
for example /usr/docdistfiles, then when you overrode ${DISTFILES} it broke
the release build when it tried to build docproj port in the chroot'd
release area. To preserve backwards compatibility, DOCDISTFILES defaults
to the value of DISTFILES.

the ports and doc trees. There is no change if we are not building a
release (i.e., we are not using a tag of the form RELENG_ver_RELEASE
--e.g., a RELENG_ver tag used to build a snapshot).
This should allow the ports and doc freezes during the release cycles
to be somewhat shorter, as commits to those (non-branched) trees can
resume as soon as the tags are laid down.

Oh why did I select a first project that needed to touch release/Makefile..
The fact that my release-building Alpha panics on me does not help either :(
and concat these to the corresponding generic *.TXT living in ./texts
This is currently aimed at HARDWARE.TXT but works for things like RELNOTES.TXT
too.

with kld etc just fine, but tracebacks would have less information and
nm /kernel wouldn't be so good).
- Just strip the kernel on the boot disk. This does not affect kld or
module loading, there are two symbol tables in a kernel. There is the
dynamic linking one (.dynsym+.strtab) with just global symbols and a user
symbol table (.symtab+.strtab) with all symbols. BTW; objdump lies and
hides the second one. There's a good half a meg or so that can be saved
from an average kernel by stripping it.
Kill duplicates for programs that have been in the boot crunched image
as well as on the fixit floppy (pwd, newfs, hostname, test). Our
space is really too valuable to have them around there twice. I doubt
pwd needs to be there at all since it's a builtin into sh(1) anyway
(oh, and the same applies to test(1) IIRC), but heck, leave them by
now.
Use the new `fixit' target in MAKEDEV to create the /dev nodes on
the floppy, instead of including the kitchensink...
Finally, tune the values used for creating the floppy. I currently
end up with
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity iused ifree %iused
/dev/vnn0c 1363 1301 -47 104% 368 14 96%
...which is not quite ideal yet, but at least a working configuration
again.
