2017-09-01Remove the miniroot for the OMAP3 BeagleBoards. Ethernet is on USB andJonathan Gray

2017-08-23Reverting 1.126. espie@ pointed out that the change was misledingNayden Markatchev
becuase the compilers, which are part of comp62, still provide support for Objective-C, hence the original text was still correct.

Too bad this highly critical bugfix will miss release. okay deraadt@

2016-02-12- re-order the (I)nstall, (U)pgrade, (A)utoinstall part to match whatRobert Peichaer
the installer shows and what the subsequent text describes. - re-phrase the part about ssh logins as root. The installer now asks "Allow root ssh login? (yes, no, prohibit-password)". Previously it was "Since you set up a user, disable sshd(8) logins to root?" OK krw@, sthen@
