scripts. These scripts handle vnode backed md(4) devices.
Old ramdisk{,-own} scripts will stay a bit in CVS to allow some time for
migration since variable names have changed (ramdisk_* -> mdconfig_*).
Two new variables have been introduced to be able to populate the md(4)
device once it has been mounted (mdconfig_*_files and mdconfig_*_cmd).
Use should be as easy as:
mdconfig_md0="-t malloc -s 10m"
mdconfig_md1="-t vnode -f /var/foo.img"
See rc.conf(5) for more information and description of the additional
variables.

Delete the reference to 'device fd', to avoid kernel build breakage like
the one described in the PR audit trail.

issue where some global jail_* variables were overriden in the script. [1]
- Change "jid" to "jname" in rc.conf(5), since it's more a jail name than a
jail id. [1]
- Update examples and comments in defaults/rc.conf to advertise new
variables and the fact that some of the jail-specific variables may be made
jail-global. [2]

subdirectories that will be used for removable media mount points (i.e.
mount points for CDs, floppy disks, USB drives, etc.). While the primary
purpose of /media is to provide a location for HAL
(http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software_2fhal) to mount volumes, it could
be used by any application that needs to manage removable media volumes.

pages existed only for the dynamic sysctl interfaces. There's probably
more complete and accurate content, better advice, etc, that could be added
here.
Per scottl's suggest, add a small piece of moralizing text regarding the
fact that sysctl names quickly get embedded in system configuration files,
libraries, third party applications, and even books, so renaming and
removing names after they've been published is a tricky issue.
