Luigi Rizzo df52a87993 A number of small changes to make the 'save choice to disk' safer,
and re-enable it as default.

In particular:

+ re-enable the 'update' flag in the Makefile (of course!);

+ commit Warner's patch "orb $NOUPDATE,_FLAGS(%bp)"
  to avoid writing to disk in case of a timeout/default choice;

+ fix an off-by-one count in the partition scan code that would
  print the wrong name for unknown partitions;

+ unconditionally change the boot prompt to 'Boot:' instead of 'Default:'
  to make room for the extra code/checks/messages. Some of the changes
  listed below are also made to save space;

+ rearrange and fix comments for known partition types. Right now we
  explicitly recognise *BSD, Linux, FAT16 (type 6, used on many USB keys),
  NTFS (type 7), FAT32 (type 11).
  Depending on other options we also recognise Extended (type 5),
  FAT12 (type 1) and FAT16 < 32MB (type 4).

+ Add an entry "F6 PXE" when the code is built with -DPXE (which is
  a default now). Technically, F6 boots through INT18, so the prompt 'PXE'
  is a bit misleading. Unfortunately the name INT18
  is too long and does not fit in - we could use ROM perhaps.
  The reason I picked 'PXE' is that on many (I believe) new systems
  INT18 calls PXE.

Apart from the choice of the name for PXE/ROM/INT18, this should close
pending issues on the 1-sector boot0 code and we should be able to
move the code to RELENG_7 when it reopens.

No boot0cfg changes are necessary.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The ``world''
target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not
changed from the currently running version.  See:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
for more information, including setting make(1) variables.

The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
