- do not mention tape as an installation media on systems where it is very
unlikely that a tape drive can be connected to (i.e. anything with only
USB as expansion capabilities)
- do not mention that fetching the installation sets from a partition is
``for upgrades only''. You may do this for installation, but of course
you can not use a partition which will be newfs'ed for that purpose.
- mention ext2fs partitions as possible installation sets source only on
platforms where the installation media actually can mount an ext2fs
filesystem.
- stress the fact that the sparc miniroot image is a GENERIC kernel with
a little on-disk filesystem, and not a RAMDISK kernel with a little
in-memory filesystem, and thus must not be overwritten during installation
(i.e. be careful if you repartition the disk the miniroot has been put on).
- more conv=sync -> conv=osync for tape setup instructions.
- model-specific layout changes on armish, loongson and socppc instructions.
- fix various typos and grammar mistaeks.

HFS + disklabel setups.

Also, the per-platform features are moved to a common place, which makes
the MD layout easier to work on. m4.common is still a tangled mess of subtly
placed dnl, though...

- document questions in proper order: hostname before network configuration,
DNS only if network is configured, sshd and ntpd, aperture only on
machines which need it, serial console only on machines which need it.
This is done by splitting the end of OpenBSDCommonURL in various
macros, OpenBSDInstallWrapup, OpenBSDInstallAperture, OpenBSDInstallConsole
and OpenBSDInstallWrapupPart2.
- use the above macros when appropriate, OpenBSDInstallWrapup* being
mandatory on all arches.
- remove serial console configuration blurb on sparc and sparc64, it is
handled by OpenBSDInstallConsole now.

instead of a mix of vt100 and vt220.

- mention comp contains an objective-C compiler too.
- rewrite InstallPrelude so that it will only output the ``know your drive
geometry'' blurb if asked to, and for a specified disk type. Use it for
non-IDE and non-SCSI disks only, otherwise the kernel is good enough to
do the job without the users' help.
- similarily, adapt BootMsgs to make the second part of the geometry blurb
optional, and to accept up to three disk types. Use this to report better
disk names (i.e. no point saying an scsi disk would show up as sd0 on
platforms which can't have scsi disks, or won't be able to boot from them).
- in InstallPart4, drop the part about block and fragment sizes in
disklabel. The defaults are good, and you won't get to change them unless
you switched to expert mode.
- the default answer to ``wanna get the ftp mirror list, unzel?'' is ``no'',
so pressing enter to get it is not enough anymore (-:

summing it up:
- Clean up sources - fix naming, delete old email addresses
- Added support for display of Mac volume names
- Fix block 0 display to show logical offset of drivers
- Require confirmation of quit without write
- Fix iteration to not complain about missing devices
- Warn when creating/writing a map with more than 15 entries
and, most important, add do_update_dpme() which allows us to partition
OpenBSD slices without previous MacOS setup.
Tested with shared MacOS install on macppc, procedure there remains the
same.

into OpenBSD; from NetBSD.

only builds a minimal tree of device and that you still have to ``cd /dev &&
./MAKEDEV all'' to generate all the available device nodes to finish the
installation.

(i.e. Quadra 900, 950), make sure that the serial switch option is set
to "off" in the Control Panel. This allows OpenBSD to use the serial
lines.

and bootable CD-ROM mini images on some platforms, too. Mention such a mini
image for alpha, consistent spelling of CD-ROM, and a few minor updates not
worth mentioning I had lying in my tree.

geesh). This is a first crack, but this makes doc at least passible.

More work comign shortly as these need a lot of attention.

However this stuff is largely related to NetBSD and must be completely
redone, if we will make real relases sometime
