installation, the kernel may need less than this). Stress that there is no
much point running with less than 32MB nowadays (unless you love being
swap-bound).

(especially on vax, where bsd.rd really needs 16MB to install nowadays
although the system can live in less).
While there, fix a few typos.

if they want to upgrade with bsd.rd, since older boot blocks can't boot ELF
kernels.

removal of misc. Better late than never.

- 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 (-:

Describe with much more details how to successfully boot from various
devices, including non-built-in ethernet or SCSI controllers; also hint
that most of the MVME147 and the MVME187 can not netboot at all.
This should be much, much more understandable (but we need to run this
through a drunk pvalchev@ to be sure).

my bad. Spotted by pvalchev@.
