* Add separate directories for the individual netboot ROMs and
always build them.
* Each bootloader Makefile explicitly specifies the start file
and link address it wishes to use.
* genprom becomes a proper host program.
* Make sure all generated files get cleaned up.
* Set BINDIR in Makefile.inc
* Add compressed image support to pxeboot.
* Make pxeboot use the default serial console speed (9600).

Still needs some work, but this will load a kernel on a Soekris net4501.
Many thanks to Frank van der Linden and his simulator wizardry for
helping me debug the low-level startup code.
Don't make clean and cleandir depend on the lib subdir.
Just check for it's existance before running the submake.
This makes it possible to run a make build (which runs
cleandir before make obj) in a r/o source tree.
* recognize PS/2 L40 via biosmca() and biosmca_ps2model in gatea20.c, instead
of being a compile time option
* if the system is PS/2 with MCA bus, map DTYPE_ESDI disks to ed(4) for
COMPAT_OLDBOOT
The new code is conditional on SUPPORT_PS2 define, which is on by default
for biosboot-based bootblocks.
variable, if the machine has a MCA bus according to info returned
by BIOS (i.e. on machines without MCA bus, biosmca_ps2model would be zero).
biosmca() is expected to be called on beginning the initialization,
and biosmca_ps2model is then used for further checks.
type in biosdiskopen(), and if it is of type FS_RAID, add 64 to d->b_off.
NOTE: installboot(8) still needs some hacking to DTRT, but at least this way
if you can load "/boot" off another partition (e.g, wd0h), then wd0a can be
of type `RAID' with a raidframe mirror at the start and the kernel
will load OK of wd0a, and with raidctl -A root partitions, it will change
root as well.
maps standard boot flags to corresponding RB_* values
use BOOT_FLAG() in port's MD code as appropriate
as discussed on tech-kern, add new boot flags -v, -q for booting
verbosely or quietly, and corresponding AB_VERBOSE/AB_QUIET
boot flags; also add FreeBSD-compatible bootverbose macro and
NetBSD-specific bootquiet macro
for hpcmips, use new bootverbose instead of it's own hpcmips_verbose
Tested on i386, and to limited extend (compile of affected files) also for
mvme68k, hp300, luna68k, sun3.
addresses the problems seen by Jason Thorpe <thorpej@netbsd.org> and
Erik Berls <cyber@netbsd.org> necessitating rev 1.20 of
biosboot/main.c.
Move BOOTSEG from 0x100 to 0x1000.
Move heap from 0x10000 to 0x20000.
XXXXXXXX
This is a Kluge From Hell to allow boot blocks to grow a little larger
without diskbuf[] crossing a 64k boundary.
the video mode on machines with ancient or no video cards is not clear,
for safety's sake a I created a new biosboot variant, biosboot_resetvideo
that does the call.
Anyway, now I can boot my i-opener without hitting Tab. Thanks Andrew!
