at runtime and to support distributing additional kernels:
o remove kernel from the base tarball
o add new kernel tarballs
o build + package both SMP and GENERIC kernels when an <arch>/conf/SMP
config file is present
o add sysinstall support for multiple kernels
o update sysinstall to probe for the number of cpus on a system
and auto-select smp/up kernel accordingly
o add a post-kernels install hook to fixup /boot/kernel
o add -ldevinfo to boot crunch for sysinstall's cpu probing logic
Notes:
1. On HEAD this code is not currently used because GENERIC kernels
include SMP. This work is mainly intended for RELENG_6 where the
GENERIC kernel is UP. If HEAD changes to match then just enable
WITH_SMP in sysinstall/Makefile.
2. The cpu probing support is done with acpi and MPTable; this means
some systems will require work for auto-detection to work.
3. The handling of /boot/kernel may need to be revisited; for now
we rename one kernel at the last moment (SMP if installed, otherwise
GENERIC). There are other, possibly better, approaches.
Lots of help from ru, emaste, scottl, and jhb.

- add -lgeom
- use bsdlabel instead of disklabel

note, this is not really a bridge because the old-style
bridging code is not in 7.0 anymore, so the kernel config
file should be changed.

Try to make everyone happy: David (to have debug kernels installed
by default), Warner (to be able to override that), and myself (for
actually making it all work and to be consistent).
Now, if kernel was configured for debugging (through DEBUG=-g in
the kernel config file or "config -g"), doing "make install" will
install debug versions of kernel and module objects with their
canonical names,
kernel.debug -> /boot/kernel/kernel
if_fxp.ko.debug -> /boot/kernel/if_fxp.ko
Installing a kernel not configured for debugging, or debug kernel
with INSTALL_NODEBUG variable defined, will install non-debug
kernel and module objects.
Also, restore the install.debug and reinstall.debug targets that
are part of the existing API (they cause some additional gdb(1)
scripts to be installed).

- When a separate livefs ISO is used, change the name of the tree directory
to be R/cdrom/livefs and change the name of the iso to livefs.iso rather

simpler.

- Retire CD_EXTRA_BITS and replace it with CD_PACKAGE_TREE. CD_EXTRA_BITS
was specific to disc1, but CD_PACKAGE_TREE instead should point to a

- Rename the bootonly volume label to "FreeBSD_bootonly" and just hardcode

The new system tries to be more automated so that there is less work for
the re's to do. It also no longer uses a /usr/ports tree as its input,
but uses the generated package build including its INDEX file as its input.
It parses the INDEX file, determines which packages should go on which ISO
images, and then builds full-fledged trees of packages that can be added
as an argument to mkisofs along with the tree built by 'make release' to
build a full CD image. The INDEX files in the populated trees are
generated with volume media number to make use of sysinstall's multiple
volume support so that the user is kindly prompted to insert the
appropriate disc for a package if it is not on the current disc. There is
still some more tweaking to be done here, but this part needs to be
committed. This stuff will all be used to prep the 5.4 release as well.
