269e7fc862 Add FAQ entries on dealing with ACPI issues and enabling the ISA drivers 
that were recently disabled.
There still are several references to the now-gone userconfig; these need to
be fixed before 5.0-RELEASE.

c62f378dea "i386" is probably a better long name for the i386 platform, as 
opposed to IA-32.

24c6d97ccd Update sparc64 installation instructions. Because sysinstall now 
works on sparc64, this document can now use (almost) the same
procedures as i386, et al.  CDROM booting instructions are cut-and-pasted
from the older sparc64/install.sgml file, which is now unlinked from
the document build.

This document is a long ways from perfect, but it's better than shipping
instructions for an installation procedure that doesn't apply anymore.

While here, add some SGML comments to help others navigate the sources.

9f2614d473 Connect the ia64 versions of the release documentation to the RELNOTESng 
build.

This will give ia64 folks the chance to help flesh these out, and
also ensure that (when the time comes) ia64 releases with documentation
won't fall over due to missing RELNOTESng files.

1f976473de Try to make this document reflect reality better: 
o All of the Q&A entries in this section were i386-specific, so make
these conditional on building for that platform.  If
non-i386-platforms need similar Q&A lists, they can add their own to
this file.

o Coalesce the two Q&A sections into one.

o Correct some device names (wd(4) devices have not existed for quite
some time).

o Get rid of a number of obsolete entries (suggested by jhb).

7316f95396 Restructure the Sparc installation instructions to 
- get rid of the 4th level headings
- seperate the actions required to prepare the installation (getting
  the CD, settings up the various daemons, ...) from the actual
  installation

Translation teams: This patch moves some paragraphs around and changes
a lot of <sectX> headers, but does not contain any content changes in
the strict sense of the word (i.e. I did not rewrite paragraphs yet).
There were no changes to the indentation, either.
