think this list of the bare minimal ports required should maybe be
moved to textproc/docproj/Makefile, so that when we add a new

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

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

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.

I.e. pcn(4) gets first chance. There is a problem however in that pcn(4)

This however causes bad installs if one has an AMD PCnet/FAST NIC.

Following a suggestion by Ruslan, the initial creation of the

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.

filesystem expands the inode to 256 bytes to make space for 64-bit
block pointers. It also adds a file-creation time field, an ability
to use jumbo blocks per inode to allow extent like pointer density,
and space for extended attributes (up to twice the filesystem block
size worth of attributes, e.g., on a 16K filesystem, there is space
for 32K of attributes). UFS2 fully supports and runs existing UFS1
filesystems. New filesystems built using newfs can be built in either
UFS1 or UFS2 format using the -O option. In this commit UFS1 is
the default format, so if you want to build UFS2 format filesystems,
you must specify -O 2. This default will be changed to UFS2 when
UFS2 proves itself to be stable. In this commit the boot code for
reading UFS2 filesystems is not compiled (see /sys/boot/common/ufsread.c)
as there is insufficient space in the boot block. Once the size of the
boot block is increased, this code can be defined.
Things to note: the definition of SBSIZE has changed to SBLOCKSIZE.
The header file <ufs/ufs/dinode.h> must be included before
<ufs/ffs/fs.h> so as to get the definitions of ufs2_daddr_t and
ufs_lbn_t.
Still TODO:
Verify that the first level bootstraps work for all the architectures.
Convert the utility ffsinfo to understand UFS2 and test growfs.
Add support for the extended attribute storage. Update soft updates
to ensure integrity of extended attribute storage. Switch the
current extended attribute interfaces to use the extended attribute
storage. Add the extent like functionality (framework is there,
but is currently never used).

as of 4.6-RELEASE (or earlier). This commit shouldn't have any immediate
effect, but we'll eventually use some stylesheet magic to remove
the historic release notes from the output stream. This will have
the effect of making the 5.0-RELEASE release notes contain material
only relevent to -CURRENT *or* recently MFC-ed to 4-STABLE.
The stylesheet fixes will follow later, once I work out a couple more
details. I wanted to get this commit done now, before anything gets
MFC-ed in the post-4.6 world (so we don't need to go back later and
figure this out).
If a historic release note gets modified, it may very well be
appropriate to remove its historic attribute.
In fact, these variable are set as environment variables since we run
"make TARGET=xxx TARGET_ARCH=xxx"; TARGET and TARGET_ARCH are declared
in the command line arguments. However, if you are not make(1) guy,
it is hard to understand that TARGET/TARGET_ARCH are appropriately set
in a chroot environment (as environment variables).
Now, the only environment variable need to be set explicitly is 'PATH'.
If we set PATH in /mk script, we can make pristine sandbox for release
build (i.e., "env -i /usr/sbin/chroot ${CHROOT} /mk" will work).
