/boot/kernel can fail. Try to remove /boot/kernel.prev and cope the
best we can if that fails.

I considered leaving /boot/kernel out of the chflags noschg line, but I
seem to remember that there was a period where /boot/kernel was schg, so
have left it in for safety's sake.

this now compiles on i386 with WARNS?= 3. Most of the fixes included
adding missing 'static' keywords to internal functions, using fully-defined
terminators in statically defined arrays of structs, and various
signed vs unsigned mismatches. Also G/C'd unused configSecurity()
function.
instance, the dreaded shared memory problem in PostgreSQL coming back to
haunt you after a binary update.

UPGRADE.TXT along with a YesNo dialog requesting confirmation of
the upgrade. During the transition to RELNOTESng, UPGRADE.TXT got
folded into a file that eventually renders as INSTALL.TXT, which
makes sysinstall complain about a non-existent file. As a
solution/workaround, point the user at INSTALL.TXT, and then request
confirmation.

names suggest, they perform methods on Device's. In addition, they
check that the pointer passed to them is valid; if it isn't, they
pretend that the action failed. This fixes some crashes due to NULL
dereferences (e.g., PR 26509).

configure FreeBSD so that various databases such as passwd and group can be
looked up using flat files, NIS, or Hesiod.
= Hesiod has been added to libc (see hesiod(3)).
= A library routine for parsing nsswitch.conf and invoking callback
functions as specified has been added to libc (see nsdispatch(3)).
= The following C library functions have been modified to use nsdispatch:
. getgrent, getgrnam, getgrgid
. getpwent, getpwnam, getpwuid
. getusershell
. getaddrinfo
. gethostbyname, gethostbyname2, gethostbyaddr
. getnetbyname, getnetbyaddr
. getipnodebyname, getipnodebyaddr, getnodebyname, getnodebyaddr
= host.conf has been removed from src/etc. rc.network has been modified
to warn that host.conf is no longer used at boot time. In addition, if
there is a host.conf but no nsswitch.conf, the latter is created at boot
time from the former.

as redoing all the menus to have proper, or at least non-hallucinogenic,
keyboard accelerators.
This requires my recent update to libdialog to work properly and will
probably also exhibit some other "interesting" behavior while the last
few missing screen clears are found (which is why I'm not going to MFC
immediately). At least now, however, sysinstall does not gratuitously
redraw random screens at the drop of a hat and drive serial console
installers out of their minds.
Now we know which variables are internal and which need to be
backed to /etc/rc.conf.site. rc.conf is not touched now.
Also kget kernel change information back properly and set up a loader.rc
file to use it.
o Move fixups into extraction routine so all consumers don't have to duplicate
the right behavior.
o Make some things more orthogonal (just for asthetics sake)
o Add option to go back and do it again if XF86Setup fails (possibly with
a different setup - this one has always annoyed me).
Now you can use one without entering the other and it will DTRT.
These changes just allowed me to do the most straight-forward new disk
installation I've ever managed with sysinstall.
