5d8a28f3e1 Turn off building the ARC loader. I don't know of anyone currently working
on advancing this WIP.

5b98b64392 OpenFirmware/PowerPC loader, part 2.
This brings the loader up to the point where I can compile it under
NetBSD/macppc and have it boot, interact and talk to NFS servers.

sys/boot/ofw/libofw/main.c has been deleted (it has no revision history) and
replaced with sys/boot/ofw/common/main.c

0ff463dd2d PC-98 has MACHINE_ARCH=i386 and MACHINE=pc98. Make it a special case.
This should fix the breakage reported by nyan.

0917704bd4 ${MACHINE} -> ${MACHINE_ARCH}
All Makefiles now use MACHINE_ARCH for the target architecture.
Unification is required for cross-building.

dccbc08d92 PC98 version of new boot loader. Because boot2 has not yet ported,
files in boot2 directory are copies from legacy biosboot.

780ebb4b00 Add the Ficl (Forth Inspired Command Language) interpreter. If all goes well,
this will allow us to manage bloat in the loader by using a bytecoded HLL
rather than lots of C code.  It also offers an opportunity for vendors
or others with special applications to significantly customise the boot
process without having to commit to a divergent code branch.

This early commit is to allow others to experiment with the most effective
mechanisms for integrating FICL with the loader as it currently stands.

Ficl is distributed with the following license conditions:

"Ficl is freeware.  Use it in any way that you like, with the understanding
 that the code is not supported."

c2f9d95de5 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.
