LINT: add a couple of new/missing/undocumented options
files.i386: add linux code so that you can compile a kernel with static
linux emulation ("options LINUX")
i386/*: use #if defined(COMPAT_LINUX) || defined(LINUX) to enable static
support of linux emulation (just like "IBCS2" makes ibcs2 static)
The main thing this is going to make obvious, is that the LINUX code
(when compiled from LINT) has a lot of warnings, some of which dont look
too pleasant..
allow one EISA/ISA/PCI/VL Buslogic controller to be probed. The driver
is almost fully dynamic. It just needs some kdc work and for the SCSI code
to stop passing unit numbers up in the scsi_xfer struct.
require specific partitions be mentioned in the kernel config
file ("swap on foo" is now obsolete).
From Poul-Henning:
The visible effect is this:
As default, unless
options "NSWAPDEV=23"
is in your config, you will have four swap-devices.
You can swapon(2) any block device you feel like, it doesn't have
to be in the kernel config.
There is a performance/resource win available by getting the NSWAPDEV right
(but only if you have just one swap-device ??), but using that as default
would be too restrictive.
The invisible effect is that:
Swap-handling disappears from the $arch part of the kernel.
It gets a lot simpler (-145 lines) and cleaner.

card. This is the braindamaged card with the 80186 CPU on it. It is
slow, probably not very good after all, but hey, if you have one lying
around doing nothing anyway...
Added the "zp0" driver to GENERIC.
Handles at least Trantor T130 and ProAudioSpectrum adapters.
The pas driver has consequently been removed.
This driver can be configured without without interrupts.
Manpage to follow when PAS16 has been edited in.

of config so YOU MUST RECOMPILE CONFIG. Modifying config was the cleanest
solution to integrating this driver into the tree which will become more
obvious in the next commit.
explanation. More doc needed, but not hard to do, if you want to.
A big hand to Martin Renters for the netboot program !
Anybody want to compete on who can "make world" in the shortest
amount of time ? I have 127 i486DX2/66 and 5 P60's I can use
now. And 3 times 66 Gb file servers to support it... :->
Anyway, NFS will be standard in the GENERIC kernel now, so that
people can use the bin-tarball to set up shop.
