with kld etc just fine, but tracebacks would have less information and
nm /kernel wouldn't be so good).
- Just strip the kernel on the boot disk. This does not affect kld or
module loading, there are two symbol tables in a kernel. There is the
dynamic linking one (.dynsym+.strtab) with just global symbols and a user
symbol table (.symtab+.strtab) with all symbols. BTW; objdump lies and
hides the second one. There's a good half a meg or so that can be saved
from an average kernel by stripping it.
Kill duplicates for programs that have been in the boot crunched image
as well as on the fixit floppy (pwd, newfs, hostname, test). Our
space is really too valuable to have them around there twice. I doubt
pwd needs to be there at all since it's a builtin into sh(1) anyway
(oh, and the same applies to test(1) IIRC), but heck, leave them by
now.
Use the new `fixit' target in MAKEDEV to create the /dev nodes on
the floppy, instead of including the kitchensink...
Finally, tune the values used for creating the floppy. I currently
end up with
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity iused ifree %iused
/dev/vnn0c 1363 1301 -47 104% 368 14 96%
...which is not quite ideal yet, but at least a working configuration
again.
Set ALLLANG to install all the languages, otherwise set DOC_LANG
to just the languages (and encodings) you want to install.
Default to building the html-split (lots of small HTML files, with
links to go between them), html (one big honking HTML file), and plain
text versions of the documentation. Does not compress any of the docs
prior to doing the installation.

Cockups and typos: nik
in some code from C. Stone to parse the lease information. This is still
a WIP and this commit is largely intended to allow others to sync up; the
dhclient code still only works when doing dhcp configuration post-install
and requires a bit more work on the boot floppy before it will truly
work in the minimal bootstrapping role.
a ports tree which was installed initially with the system later,
but this is probably not the general case (user CVSups the repository
rather than the checked-out bits) and it's penalizing everyone else
with excessive inode consumption.
Enable MS-CHAP support.
release/Makefile:
Build a separate NOCRYPT version of pppd, to keep This Great
Nation's top-secret cryptographic tools out of the filthy hands
of those evil furriners.
1. Enable use of serial console for installation by using autoboot
instead of boot.
2. Beep when the mfs root floppy needs to be placed in the fdd.
3. Beep again when mfs root image is loaded and the loader waits
for ten seconds before it starts booting for any input. (Serial
console users can say " boot -h" here.)
