This will give ia64 folks the chance to help flesh these out, and
also ensure that (when the time comes) ia64 releases with documentation
won't fall over due to missing RELNOTESng files.
This involves moving all networking drivers to floppy 2, all RAID
nfsclient && cd9660 to floppy 3 (and adding ispfw).
COMPAT_FREEBSD4 had to come back, maxusers is down to 2.
AHC is out until somebody can make it a module for alpha.
TurboLaser is out because it rarely has a floppy and probably
no longer works *anyway*.
There's probably some cleanup that can be done because I was told
that things in drivers.conf don't have to be removed via dokern.sh,
but because I formally tested the release build with this version
and don't want to spend another half day on it, it's going in.
I'm sure we'll have to do some further changes prior to release.
NB: Not tested end to end yet because I've been told that sysinstall
doesn't yet work.
o All of the Q&A entries in this section were i386-specific, so make
these conditional on building for that platform. If
non-i386-platforms need similar Q&A lists, they can add their own to
this file.

o Correct some device names (wd(4) devices have not existed for quite
some time).
o Get rid of a number of obsolete entries (suggested by jhb).

At this time EFI auto boot works and we're properly loading the
MFS root file system. Time to create drivers.conf and get this

o ia64: Set DOFS_SH to point to an alternate version.
o ia64: Lower BIGBOOTSIZE from 120M (LS-120) to ~5M.
o ia64: Set BIGBOOTLABEL to efi so that we can check for it
in the alternate doFS.sh script. If the label is not efi, we
can invoke the generic doFS.sh.

In order to avoid having to worry about a geometry as much as

With this, auto-boot works, but we have a problem mounting the

in no way final. A typical ia64 wart is that there are no boot blocks.
Instead, we need to create disks with EFI partitions if we want auto

While here, pull in some more entities so that we can build in the
RELNOTESng environment.
o mount (and unmount) devfs in the chroot'd filesystem
o handle umounting devfs in case of a keyboard interrupt
o remove MAKEDEV from the fixit floppy so things fit again (mount_devfs was
added in a separate commit)
o explicitly remove mfsroot.gz and loader.conf when building the cd-rom area
as otherwice cp -Rp aborts when a previous run left identical files around
o increase the number of inodes on the drivers floppy; moving drivers from
the kernel there (to shrink it's size) caused things to overflow
o while we're increasing the driver's floppy inode config, separate out all
parameters from the boot floppy

if things fail to fit again.

under way to move the remnants of the a.out toolchain to ports. As the
comment in src/Makefile said, this stuff is deprecated and one should not
expect this to remain beyond 4.0-REL. It has already lasted WAY beyond
that.
Notable exceptions:
gcc - I have not touched the a.out generation stuff there.
ldd/ldconfig - still have some code to interface with a.out rtld.
old as/ld/etc - I have not removed these yet, pending their move to ports.
some includes - necessary for ldd/ldconfig for now.

doesn't fit on the floppy any more. Turns out we grew a lnc(4) module since
I last looked. So handle it as a kld loadable module during install rather
than have it statically compiled into the kernel.
lnc(4) will attach to AMD PCnet/FAST NICs if pcn(4) does not attach.
I.e. pcn(4) gets first chance. There is a problem however in that pcn(4)
was moved out of the install kernel so that the module would be used.
This however causes bad installs if one has an AMD PCnet/FAST NIC.

Following a suggestion by Ruslan, the initial creation of the
includes and libraries (and build tools) is now done by
invoking "make buildworld" (with -DPICOBSD which eventually will
limit the amount of stuff built with a 2-line change in Makefile.inc1).
The correct environment is then used for subsequent builds.

All the above is conditional on __FreeBSD_version, as the previous
method still worked for versions earlier than 500035, and I am
unsure on how the "new" method works for earlier versions.
Finally, note that the crunch.conf files need some work because
some libraries (e.g. gmd) have gone away from the base installation.
