52501c5ede Fixed desctiptions of some options: 
- Document better what the -C option means.
- The -c option is currently a no-op.
- The -D and -h options do not allow switching between
  single/dual console modes and internal/video consoles.
  (This used to be true for the old biosdisk boot code,
  but now they just force the multiple consoles mode and
  serial console, respectively.)

9f4709d67c Refrence bsdlabel.8 and bsdlabel.5 rather then the obsolete disklabel.8 
and disklabel.5.  Refrencing bsdlabel.5 is somewhat bogus as it is not
connected to the build and is mostly unwritten at this point.

9e09a91233 Clarify boot.8 (i386 version) a bit, so that people know 
where boot.config needs to reside.  Also change /kernel
to /boot/loader, as that is the apparent default now.  This
man page probably requires more updates.

28703190c5 Add new boot flag to i386 boot: -p. 
This flag adds a pausing utility. When ran with -p, during the kernel
probing phase, the kernel will pause after each line of output.
This pausing can be ended with the '.' key, and is automatically
suspended when entering ddb.

This flag comes in handy at systems without a serial port that either hang
during booting or reser.

c4d9468ea0 mdoc(7) police: 
Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the
entire enclosed block.
