7c0bc50d70 Document that alpha install CDs are now bootable. No need to muck 
around with floppies. Also document (for lack of a more appropriate place/file)
the problems the installer has when other disks are present with a BSD
disk label on them. Please remove this warning when the problem is fixed.

Also, clarify a comment with proper comma placement.

Also tried to get the supported soundcard section more fleshed out.  This

f6ede19c6d Add a DOCDISTFILES variable to point to a directory containing the 
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.
