- Passing -m to config will now print the MACHINE and MACHINE_ARCH
given in the passed kernel configuration file and then exit.
- If an option is defined in options.MACHINE with the same name as the
architecture of the kernel being configured, that option will be
considered set. This allows conditional compilation based on CPU
architecture.
Config version is now 600010.

way to handle upgrades, so keeping this functionality in sysinstall only
serves to mislead users.

Bump / to 1GB, /var to 4GB and /tmp to 1GB.
A 512MB root partition is now too small to hold two kernels, so to
prevent installkernel failing 1GB is a better default. Likewise,
applications are storing more data in /var so 4GB is more reasonable
on a modern machine.
The previous minimum partition sizes were too small to hold a minimal
installation, and have been adjusted accordingly.

shell script is the back end logic necessary for an installer. It
contains both query routines to allow a front-end installer to present
reasonable choices to the user and also action routines which allow
the front end installer to put a FreeBSD distribution onto a disk. It
supports installing onto the usual suspects, as well as advanced
features like Mirroring, ZFS, Encryprion and GPT labels.
While this is only the back-end of the installer, it can do unattended
scripted installations. In PC-BSD's world view, all installations are
scripted and all the front-end does is write the script. As such, it
is useful in its own right.
This has been extensively tested over the past several releases of
PC-BSD. However, differences between that environment and FreeBSD
suggest there will be a period of shake-out while those differences
are discovered and corrected.
A text-based front-end is in the works. For the GUI-based front-end,
you can use the PC-BSD distribution.
Kris' BSDcan paper on pc-sysinstall is linked off his talk on the
BSDcan site:
http://www.bsdcan.org/2010/schedule/events/173.en.html
The man page is written by Josh Paetzel, and I wrote the Makefiles for
the FreeBSD integration. Kris wrote the rest.
This represents version r7010 in the PC-BSD repo.

Also dynamically decrease sampling frequency up to 4 times on inactivity,
o make cmd scoped to the whole do_rules function, since it really is
scoped to the whole fucnion. Making it static was the wrong way to
fix referencing it outside of the block in which it was declared
(and conforms to the style of the rest of the file).
o remove a couple of meaningless blank lines
o properly wrap one line.
"arp -an" when using a lot of aliases (on a single interface).
A better fix would include a better interface for if_indextoname than
getting the whole address list from the kernel just to find the one
index->name mapping.
