1207707843 Let "make" use the .mk files from the correct source tree instead
of the default ones (which could be incorrect when doing cross builds).

Also, try to be backward compatible when compiling wmk (the goal being
able to use the most recent "picobsd" script on a wide range of
source trees).

6c22923ab0 Switch to using a standard /boot directory including the GENERIC kernel
on CD's 1 and 2.  Create a simple /boot/loader.conf on each CD that loads
/boot/mfsroot.gz as a mfs_root image.  The mfsroot moved from /mfsroot.gz
to /boot/mfsroot.gz so that all of the boot stuff is in /boot.  This allows
a full kernel to be used when installing from CD on all architectures
that support CD booting.  Note that on x86, this requires using
/boot/cdboot as a no-emulation boot image instead of /floppies/boot.flp.

07e6e051e2 - Remove the -T from the 4.x newfs as well.
- Don't write out 0xaa55 to the end of the filesystem as md(4) doesn't
  generate that warning and it breaks 'disklabel mdX auto'.
- Use the 'canonical' disk name mdX instead of /dev/mdX to disklabel so
  we can use disklabel auto for mfsroot filesizes that aren't a standard
  size in /etc/disktab.

aed3440b5d The -T argument to newfs is only needed if teh disk isn't already labeled.

f4e936a83c Split the mfsroot out from the kernel for the 2.88 boot floppy and the
Alpha CD.  This makes it easier to customize ISO's locally by being able
to replace either the mfsroot or the kernel w/o having to do both.  It also
allows us to switch to using the full GENERIC kernel when booting from CD
on the Alpha and on x86 when using cdboot.  We don't do this yet, however.

Tested on:	x86, alpha

d9139c0d02 Add fsck tool for UFS to /stand tools (again).
Actually src/release/i386/boot_crunch.conf rev 1.45 does this change,
but unfortunately there is no src/sbin/fsck_4.2bsd directory, but
src/sbin/fsck_ffs.

This commit replaces 'fsck_4.2bsd' to 'fsck_ffs', and add a link to
'fsck_4.2bsd' and 'fsck_ufs'.  Note that 4-stable's fsck(8) have an
ability of fsck_ffs also, there is no need to MFC at least now.

Tested only for: i386 (but I believe this doesn't break for other archs)
