would also have to added to install kernel, which will bloat it up so that it
doesn't fit on the floppy any more. Turns out we grew a lnc(4) module since
I last looked. So handle it as a kld loadable module during install rather
than have it statically compiled into the kernel.
lnc(4) will attach to AMD PCnet/FAST NICs if pcn(4) does not attach.
I.e. pcn(4) gets first chance. There is a problem however in that pcn(4)
was moved out of the install kernel so that the module would be used.
This however causes bad installs if one has an AMD PCnet/FAST NIC.

Also shuffle i386/drivers.conf so that the floppies don't overflow
anymore. Anybody with real/better usage statistics is welcome to
shuffle it differently.

This change should/could be merged into other arch's release build
areas (PC98, Alpha), but since i cannot test a "make release" there, i
won't do this myself.

1) Use devfs to mount filesystems. If mounting devfs is fail,
fallback to old code.
2) When fscking filesystems, use 'fsck_ffs' explicitly. As a
result, we no longer need 'fsck' the wrapper program.

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.

You can specify IPv6 DNS server as well.
We have only one server ftp7.jp.freebsd.org that speaks IPv6

When building a release, RELEASE_CRUNCH is defined for a `make' of
the objects required by the crunch of each program. The object list
is still obtained in the same way, so you must make sure that all
objects are built (empty if necessary) by this make. ppp/Makefile
provides an example.

moment - the compile-time options are useless since the object
files are being used from ppp to build the crunched image, and
the ppp objects include DES at this stage since they were last
built that way to make the secure distribution. Hmmmm!
