IPX was a network transport protocol in Novell's NetWare network operating
system from late 80s and then 90s. The NetWare itself switched to TCP/IP
as default transport in 1998. Later, in this century the Novell Open
Enterprise Server became successor of Novell NetWare. The last release
that claimed to still support IPX was OES 2 in 2007. Routing equipment
vendors (e.g. Cisco) discontinued support for IPX in 2011.
Thus, IPX won't be supported in FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE.
libulog now only provides functions that are used by various packages
from the ports tree, namely the libutempter ones. There is no reason to
link it into the crunch/fixit binaries anymore.
convenient when you want to import other programs because the
libraries will not be replicated.
Given that there are no floppies around anymore, I have bumped
the fd size to 4MB (which is more than reasonable even for
embedded platforms) and gives some room for other utilities.

- use proper make configuration for the build, using
${BINMAKE} as evaluated by ${VERSION}/src/Makefile
- remove -lmytinfo from crunch.conf
- remove support for login_access in tinyware/login
- remove "machine i386" from the kernel config file
It might actually be interesting to extend the script to do
a cross build for !i386 ...

- <netipx> headers [1]
- IPX library (libipx)
- IPX support in ifconfig(8)
- IPXrouted(8)
- new MK_NCP option
New MK_NCP build option controls:
- <netncp> and <fs/nwfs> headers
- NCP library (libncp)
- ncplist(1) and ncplogin(1)
- mount_nwfs(8)
- ncp and nwfs kernel modules
User knobs: WITHOUT_IPX, WITHOUT_IPX_SUPPORT, WITHOUT_NCP.
[1] <netsmb/netbios.h> unconditionally uses <netipx> headers
so they are still installed. This needs to be dealt with.
- add -lgeom
- use bsdlabel instead of disklabel
- increase image size to 2.88M (plenty of free space left)
note, this is not really a bridge because the old-style
bridging code is not in 7.0 anymore, so the kernel config
file should be changed.

There is not much you can do now except bumping up the image size
(by uncommenting the "fd_size=2880" line in ./config),
at which point you can uncomment sshd, the associated library,
and all the good stuff such as tcpdump and natd and ppp that
you might want on such a box.
A similar change should be applied to other picobsd image types.
We had to give up DDB and grep this time...
Add a hint in "config" on how to increase the image size so
we can stuff more things in the image (mostly for use on a CDROM).
and disable telnet and friends in favour of ssh/sshd/scp.
Pull out a few NIC drivers from the config file to make the
image fit into a 1.44 image again. I have left "lnc" in as that is
emulated by vmware so this can be booted there.
I get a link error on in6addr_<something> and i cannot find the
symbol in any of the libraries. It might be my mistake, but in any
case the crunched binary would overflow the floppy, so...
This applies to -current only.
Make sure hints are statically compiled into the kernel,
because the bootloader is not available in picobsd and so the
hints file cannot be found at run time.
(This is kind of inconvenient if you have to handle non PnP devices,
but fortunately these days non-PnP ISA cards are disappearing...)
