survive a sysinstall Ctrl-C -> 'Restart'. This fixes another annoying
bug where restarting sysinstall will try to reload kernel modules and
do other external things that have already been done. For now, use
these persistent variables to keep track of module, usbd, and pccardd
initialization.

the 20010919 src/UPDATING entry.
With this patch the 4.2-RELEASE box was able to survive
the 5.0-CURRENT "make world".

not the readme. The installation document is the one that has the
content of the old FLOPPIES.TXT.

to do.

I am not sure if this is absolutely necessary on all systems. Yet,
there certainly are motherboards and notebook systems which require
this, although there are other systems which just don't. I hope we
shall know when to do this on which systems, as the development of our
ACPI subsystem progresses... (I know we didn't need this for the APM
resume.)
all the debugging code into the function versions of the mutex operations
in kern_mutex.c. This reduced the __mtx_* macros to simply wrappers of
the _{get,rel}_lock_* macros, so the __mtx_* macros were also abolished in
favor of just calling the _{get,rel}_lock_* macros. The tangled hairy mass
of macros calling macros is at least a bit more sane now.
* Don't get confused when memory regions don't lie on page boundaries -
remember our page size is typically larger than the firmware's page size.
* Add a function ia64_running_in_simulator() which is intended to detect
whether the kernel is running in SKI or on real hardware.

telling sysinstall to 'restart' will do no such thing since many of
the options are still set and so you won't be prompted for them
again.

variable to check for debug functionality. Previously, you had to set
both 'debug' and 'SYSINSTALL_DEBUG' to get a log of sysinstall's
activities. Now, only 'debug' is necessary.
