you can just ``grep >>> release.log'' and get all the highlights.

Not shure ever it needed for MFS, but just to keep old behaviour exact, can be
removed later

b9cee99a1e Squeeze the BOOTMFS kernel image some more. The Alpha kernel was simply
over flowing its britches.  So remove all ppbus bits except those for PLIP
(untested), and all USB bits as SRM does not know what USB is.  Also remove
/dev/random as I don't think we need it just for whacking bits onto a disk.

print an error message and die immediately rather than an hour later.

2931df8a40 IPv6 support.
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.

95674596b9 Add support for the National Semiconductor DP83815 fast ethernet
controller chip. This chip is currently being used on the NetGear
FA312-TX adapter, which I guess is a replacement for the FA310-TX
(PNIC-based).

I added support for this chip by modifying the sis driver since
the SiS 900 and the NS DP83815 have almost the same programming
interface (the RX filter programming and PHY access methods are
different, but the general configuration, DMA scheme and register
layout are identical).

I would have had this done a lot sooner, but getting the damn MAC
address out of the EEPROM proved to be more complicated than expected.

85ae82d6f6 remove rc and login.conf files prior to extraction of the new
rc and login.conf files from the /etc directory on the floppy.

This prevents the overwrite yes/no prompt from occuring in gzip.
(some PicoBSD disks use gzip and some use minigzip, so the gzip -f flag (force)
is not an option. minigzip has a different meaning for the -f flag.}

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.
