of unix arcana, we will not condescend to tell you how. why spoil the fun?

places to check for this information, or trial and error, with error
resulting in things getting fixed. Scary false warnings don't help anyone.
Unmaintainable lists are always unmaintained.

now bootable on all supported platforms (although it will still need manual
operation on IP22), but that install54.iso is currently still not bootable
on IP27/IP35.

have a real miniroot to be dd'ed to the disk, and that's fine; but when
we are talking about booting bsd.rd (either from an existing setup, or the
network, or the cd-rom images), then refer to it as `installation kernel'.

can't manage to use it from the `install system software' menu.

that IP22 PROM can not load ELF64 kernels. While there, in addition to the
list of `known to only boot of a low tftp port number' PROM versions, list
a few unaffected (16 bit clean) PROM versions. Hopefully user feedback will
let us figure out cutoff point so we'll only need to document these instead of
unbounded lists of PROM versions.

media on them. Try to be helpful and explain how things may fail on the
older PROM and what to do about this.

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.

Octane systems, as well as some Onyxes. With special permission to change a
systemwide .h file and add a manpage from deraadt@
Magic numbers and operation sequencing borrowed from Linux; tested on
Octane + ESI.

Heavily derived from mec(4) written by Izumi Tsutsui and Christopher Sekiya,
although it required many changes to fit the IOC3 chip.

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.
