db743def74 - Tweak order of arch fs options to stick all floppy options together and
all MFS root options together and in the same order on all archs.
- Drop support for using the no longer existing 2.88 floppy image for CD
  booting on i386 via the EMUL_BOOT variable.
- Use a stock loader on the boot floppy rather than one without forth.
- Force the gzip of the mfsroot in release.9 to succeed.  This is useful
  when doing lots of rereleases when testing floppy changes.
- If an acpi kernel module exists, stick it on the boot floppy and for
  now always load it after the kernel.

bcac273a5d Two nits from rev. 1.835:
- Fixed spelling of NO_FLOPPIES to unbreak snapshot building on
  architectures that don't support them (as installation source).

- Don't rely on CVS setting execution bits on the shell script.
  (This is also consistent with the rest of this makefile.)

7d32bca156 Overhaul our boot floppy generation system so that it scales better and
requires minimal care and feeding for future releases.
- Consolidate multitude of floppy related constants down to a normal
  FLOPPY set for 1.44 floppies and on PC98 a SMALLFLOPPY set for 1.2
  floppies.  Also, cleanup the i386 arch section by not duplicating
  constants that are the same on both machine types (i386 and pc98).
- Update the ZIPNSPLIT macro to generate a file chunks that will actually
  fit onto 1.44 floppies formatted with UFS1.  Unfortunately, split(1)
  seems to be somewhat buggy, so the files generated are slightly larger
  than the argument passed to split.
- Split the release.10 target into 3 targers: floppies.1, floppies.2 and
  floppies.3 that are added to EXTRAS only if NOFLOPPIES is defined.
  floppies.1 builds the install floppies, floppies.2 builds the fixit
  floppy, and floppies.3 generates the md5 sums and READMEs for the
  floppies/ directory.
- Drop the by now largely obsolete and less useful boot.flp picture.  This
  was more useful when the mfsroot lived inside the kernel rather than
  being loaded from a separate file by the loader.
- Only build a single mfsroot containing no modules that is used for all
  installation methods.
- Use split-file.sh to split up a gzipped GENERIC kernel into however many
  floppies it takes for the boot kernel.  Currently, a stock 5.2 GENERIC
  kernel including WITNESS, INVARIANTS, DDB, and other assorted bloat fits
  onto 2 additional floppies besides the boot floppy with some room to
  spare.
- If SPLIT_MFSROOT is defined, the mfsroot.gz file is similar split into
  however many floppies are needed.  Currently it is not defined as the
  mfsroot.gz fits onto the current boot.flp with room to spare.
- Add a 'makeFloppySet' target which builds a floppy set for a file that
  was split using split-file.sh.
- Rename the doMFSKERN target to 'buildBootFloppy' as that more closely
  matches what it does now.  We no longer build a custom BOOTMFS kernel for
  each boot floppy.
- We no longer build a 2.88 boot.flp image to use with emulated CD booting.
  The non-emulated cdboot works for almost everyone who boots off of CD and
  if it doesn't work on a particular machine, the user can always boot from
  the 1.44 floppy images.
- We no longer build a driver floppy or stick kernel modules in the mfsroot
  since we now use a stock kernel when booting from floppy.

7785c3a86e Add a script to split a single file up into chunks using split along with
a list file suitable for use with libstand's splitfs filesystem.  The first
chunk of the file is 16k and has an extension of '.boot' and is meant to be
placed on the boot floppy.  This is required because the current
implementations of gzipfs and bzipfs in libstand want to read in the header
of the file each time it is opened.

67527434e2 Fix "5.x release on 4.x box" support.
It is required to check /etc/rc.d/ldconfig before use, because
${CHROOT} sandbox is sometimes 4.x world.  If /etc/rc.d/ldconfig
is not there, run ldconfig(8) directly.

9260b63f07 Once upon a time we had both "crypto" and "krb5" distributions,
and rebuilt some bits with crypto but without Kerberos support
(most notably SSH) during "make release", to put them into the
"crypto" distribution.

Now that we don't ship the separate "krb5" distribution anymore
(it's now part of the "crypto" distribuion), don't waste time
recompiling SSH bits without crypto and without Kerberos support
in an attempt to put them in the "base" distribution -- it just
doesn't work as SSH always uses crypto code.

We avoid this by not rebuilding KPROGS from kerberos5/Makefile in
release/Makefile and adding "libpam" to SPROGS in secure/Makefile
to ensure it's still rebuilt without crypto support for the "base"
distribution.  (Disabling crypto (NOCRYPT) also disables building
of Kerberos-related PAM modules, and it's OK to depend on this.)

This should be a no-op change saving some "make release" time.
