4efd284a6d New release note: config(8) ENV. I put this under the "kernel
changes" section, but I'm not sure it's appropriate there.  config(8)
is a userland utility, but this is actually a "kernel" feature.  There
are release notes about config(8) in both sections, but "kernel" seems
more appropriate for this one.

4892f8428a Try to make some sense out of the mess that used to be INSTALL.TXT.
1.  Bring floppies.sgml section in-line into install.sgml, where it
makes more sense.

2.  Slightly reorganize some sections of Installation section and
do some wordsmithing.

3.  Update distribution layout to reflect RELNOTESng and new compat
distributions.

4.  Update upgrade file list from 4-STABLE.

5.  It's been a long time since 2.2.X; get rid of instructions dealing
with "new" handling of compatability slices and fix up other references
in the text.

6.  Hunt down and kill emoticons with extreme prejudice.  Try to
tone down the use of exclamation points.

7.  Cross-reference new and improved Installation chapter in
Handbook.

8.  Add a proper abstract for this document.

72642d727d New release note: SA-01:56.
Fix entry on SA-01:55, which was mislabeled as SA-01:54.  Also fix a
typo (I still can't spell "compatibility" correctly, it seems).

  of the two

  in the directory `make release' was issued in
+ changes name from miniboot to miniinst since we make other bootable ISOs

60f9055f7d Expand a little on the note about apm_battery. Note that apmd can
execute commands when the battery level changes, and point users at
the examples in /etc/apmd.conf since this stuff isn't (yet?)
documented in the manual page.  Also note its MFC.

39ad19b1cf Troll for MFCs that haven't been marked as such: KERNCONF, an(4)
support for Aironet 350, ed(4) support for Linksys cards, aac(4),
ssh(1) not SUID, passwd(1)/pw(8) support for passwd_format,
rc(8) deletes non-directories in /var/run and /var/spool/lock,
fmtcheck(3), sshd(8) X11Forwarding, sshd_config MaxStartups
deprecates ConnectionsPerPeriod.

Some of these MFCs are new, others were reflected in 4-STABLE's
release notes already, and still others were MFC-ed before prior
releases.

Relocate dgm->digi release note item to live next to digi.

Relocate an(4)/AIR350 note to be next to another an(4) entry.

Remove a duplicate entry documenting xargs(1) -J.

Port markup fixes:  sysutils/cs9660_unicode, net/pim6dd, net/pim6sd.

da21fb8f94 Reorganization of FreeBSD README document. This change adds no new
content or whitespace changes; it just moves sections around for
better organization; the content of this file used to be fairly
fragmented because it originally was derived from parts of several other
documents.

The first half of "About FreeBSD" has been pulled into the Introduction
section.  The remainder of "About FreeBSD" plus the "Release Documentation"
section now make up a new <sect1></sect1> level section entitled
"Further Reading".

a906539d9e Collapse the seven *.sgml files containing the content of the README
document into article.sgml.  Move the $FreeBSD$ tag from a
comment to a <pubdate></pubdate> entry, but no other content
or whitespace changes.

The two reasons for doing this are to:  1) Get rid of a bunch of
itty-bitty files and 2) help with a reorganization of the README that
will be much simpler if all the content is in a single file.
