the device close routine. This works because the device close calls
the line discipline close (which only flushes the output buffers) and
the ttyclose() routine, which does little of nothing except screw with
the session and process group fields (which is what was causing all
the problems).
Further it implements crontab -e.
I moved cron from /usr/libexec to /usr/sbin where most daemons are
that are run from rc. That also gets rid of the ugly path crond
used to have in ps(1) outputs. Further I renamed it to cron, as
Paul Vixie likes it and is done by NetBSD.
NOTE VERY WELL THE FOLLOWING:
1) Systems crontab changed. Every users crontab resides in /var/cron
*EXCEPT* root's. This is a special crontab as it resides in
/etc. Further it is the *ONLY* crontab file in which you specify
usernames. See /usr/src/etc/crontab. This is also done by BSDI's
BSD/386 as far as I know (they provided the patches for it anyway)
2) So you *must* delete root's crontab and reinstall the copy
in /etc from /usr/src/etc.
'Must' is to much: the old installed crontab will work but cron
will also try to 'run' /etc/crontab.
3) Last but not least: cron's logging is now done via syslog. Note
that logging by cron is done lowercase when it logs about itsself
and uppercase when it logs user events, like installing a new crontab.
The default logfile file is the same as before:
syslog.conf:cron.* /var/cron/log

This uses xargs instead. My slip line's down so I can't check it in

As reported on the -bugs list by some one, and confirmed by Julian:

problem with some chipsets (UMC) remapping the 'hole' memory even when
you've got 16MB. People were led to believe that since there was only
16MB of memory in the machine, that they were okay wrt the ISA DMA
limit. This hack simply causes the extra memory to be ignored if it
appears around the 16MB limit.
* Removed pmap_is_wired
* added extra cli/sti protection in idle (swtch.s)
* slight code improvement in trap.c
* added lots of comments
* improved paging and other algorithms in VM system
Changed the output of the isa probe routine, that only devices, that
have an IO address and are smaller than 0x100 to be on the motherboard.
The seagate SCSI adapter is an example of a card, that doesn't have
an IO address and works only memory mapped.
added a note that you must decide what is appropriate for your system.

I've finally figured out (one of the reasons) why I can't run MS-Windows
after running FreeBSD 1.0...*sometimes*.
Here's your first clue. This is what your MS-Windows video drivers are called
if you run a Number 9 GXE video card:
/dos/windows/system/#9gxetc.drv
/dos/windows/system/#9gxe.drv
Choose older MULTIPORT version, because lastest bde version
not worked.
Don't force HUPCL for bidirectional case.
From bde:
Use bit (1 << (16 + 4)) in schedsoftcom() to avoid clash with
non-serial h/w on IRQ4.
Allow FIFO_TRIGGER in config.
Clear com->mcr_image when clearing mcr for init of 4port. The
usual value MCR_IENABLE should have broken 4ports unless
something happened to clear it later.
Turn off interrupts as well as DTR after an error waiting for
carrier (bidir dialin case).
Drain fifo more carefully.
Don't hang up if debugging.
Rearrange siointr() -> siointr1() for multiport case for speed,
lower latency and clarity.
Use suser() to check perms.
Provide missing splx() after failed perms checks.
c_ispeed == 0 means c_ispeed = c_ospeed (POSIX).
Set parameters (except speed) for c_ospeed == 0 as well as
hanging up.
Better initialization for console (fifo stuff...).
Misc. cleanups.
Fix dead hang if modem power is off.
problems in the moment are stray intr's in the ifconfig up/down.
No way to select all three interfaces on a combo card with
AUI/BNC/UTP interfaces and the performance doesn't look good.
Only tested with a ISA AUI/BNC card yet.
Added it to the list of known boards and put it into the the list for
the mailbox unlock. Maybe all board-ids over 0x42 should be in the
mailbox unlock part ?
