aacp is a passthrough driver for aac, but it seems that aac kernel
module has a feature provided by aacp; so it can be removed safely.
_KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING provides P1003.1B realtime extension.
However, in an installation phase, it seems that it helps a little
for us, so we can remove this option from a kernel for floppy installation.
I know _KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING option is defined in other architecture.
However, I don't touch them at this time; I can't test it.
Anyway here's result.

the BOOTMFS kernel. These help reduce the kernel size so things fit
in a floppy image. There are more low-hanging fruit to be had here
if things fail to fit again.
into the install kernel. Unfortunately pcn(4) also needs mii(4) so that
would also have to added to install kernel, which will bloat it up so that it
doesn't fit on the floppy any more. Turns out we grew a lnc(4) module since
I last looked. So handle it as a kld loadable module during install rather
than have it statically compiled into the kernel.
lnc(4) will attach to AMD PCnet/FAST NICs if pcn(4) does not attach.
I.e. pcn(4) gets first chance. There is a problem however in that pcn(4)
was moved out of the install kernel so that the module would be used.
This however causes bad installs if one has an AMD PCnet/FAST NIC.
release/${TARGET}/drivers.conf file which list drivers that have to
go into the third floppy.
Also shuffle i386/drivers.conf so that the floppies don't overflow
anymore. Anybody with real/better usage statistics is welcome to
shuffle it differently.

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.
