dd72da46f8 Add driver support for PCI fast ethernet adapters based on the
RealTek 8129/8139 chipset like I've been threatening. Update kernel
configs, userconfig.c, relnotes and sysinstall. No man page yet;
comming soon.

I consider this driver stable enough that I want to give it some

===================================
                HARP  |  Host ATM Research Platform
                ===================================

                              HARP 3

What is this stuff?
-------------------
The Advanced Networking Group (ANG) at the Minnesota Supercomputer Center,
Inc. (MSCI), as part of its work on the MAGIC Gigabit Testbed, developed
the Host ATM Research Platform (HARP) software, which allows IP hosts to
communicate over ATM networks using standard protocols.  It is intended to
be a high-quality platform for IP/ATM research.

HARP provides a way for IP hosts to connect to ATM networks.  It supports
standard methods of communication using IP over ATM.  A host's standard IP
software sends and receives datagrams via a HARP ATM interface.  HARP provides
functionality similar to (and typically replaces) vendor-provided ATM device
driver software.

HARP includes full source code, making it possible for researchers to
experiment with different approaches to running IP over ATM.  HARP is
self-contained; it requires no other licenses or commercial software packages.

HARP implements support for the IETF Classical IP model for using IP over ATM
networks, including:

   o IETF ATMARP address resolution client
   o IETF ATMARP address resolution server
   o IETF SCSP/ATMARP server
   o UNI 3.1 and 3.0 signalling protocols
   o Fore Systems's SPANS signalling protocol

What's supported
----------------
The following are supported by HARP 3:

   o ATM Host Interfaces
        - FORE Systems, Inc. SBA-200 and SBA-200E ATM SBus Adapters
        - FORE Systems, Inc. PCA-200E ATM PCI Adapters
        - Efficient Networks, Inc. ENI-155p ATM PCI Adapters

   o ATM Signalling Protocols
        - The ATM Forum UNI 3.1 signalling protocol
        - The ATM Forum UNI 3.0 signalling protocol
        - The ATM Forum ILMI address registration
        - FORE Systems's proprietary SPANS signalling protocol
        - Permanent Virtual Channels (PVCs)

   o IETF "Classical IP and ARP over ATM" model
        - RFC 1483, "Multiprotocol Encapsulation over ATM Adaptation Layer 5"
        - RFC 1577, "Classical IP and ARP over ATM"
        - RFC 1626, "Default IP MTU for use over ATM AAL5"
        - RFC 1755, "ATM Signaling Support for IP over ATM"
        - RFC 2225, "Classical IP and ARP over ATM"
        - RFC 2334, "Server Cache Synchronization Protocol (SCSP)"
        - Internet Draft draft-ietf-ion-scsp-atmarp-00.txt,
                "A Distributed ATMARP Service Using SCSP"

   o ATM Sockets interface
        - The file atm-sockets.txt contains further information

What's not supported
--------------------
The following major features of the above list are not currently supported:

        o UNI point-to-multipoint support
        o Driver support for Traffic Control/Quality of Service
        o SPANS multicast and MPP support
        o SPANS signalling using Efficient adapters

This software was developed under the sponsorship of the Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency (DARPA).

67f934a2cf It was incorrect to use the `c' device for the matcd driver;
apparently, unlike the IDE or SCSI CDROM drivers, this is magically
special-cased for audio CDs.  This also might explain what happened
with scd (Sony) CDs also since I made the same change there.  A follow-up
commit will fix that. Thanks, Dave!

97f546d2b8 1. If device node already exists, don't gratuituously try to make it
again.

2. Don't create slice entries when running multi-user; it adds far too
   much to sysinstall's startup time.  User is expected to have correct
   slice entries after system is installed.

a6a2ca12c2 Make some changes to the way the label editor reads script variables
so you don't need to re-enter it for each and every filesystem. Heads up!
This change is incompatible with the previous scripting format,
so those folks (all 2 of you) using config files should take a look
at the changes to the sample install.cfg file for the diskLabelEditor's
new calling syntax.

Finally write a man page for this thing, documenting all of the above
and more.  I can't drive a stake through this thing's heart without
properly documenting it first, so please consider this step #1 in that
process (to be honest, sysinstall will also live on for some time in
the 2.2. branch since it's unlikely that the new install tools will ever
make it over there - they're strictly 3.0 material).

adbeb9fc1c Back out the changes to set the resolver timeout. All they seem to do
is _break_ dns lookups entirely, and since reading the relevant docs and
source code does not enlighten for now, I'll remove this until more
basic research has been done into controlling the resolver's timeout
values.
