pavel 4195ecc3d2 Make the port-specific changelog ($MACHINE/whatis) optional by using .pso
to call a shell script which outputs nothing if the file is not present.

Remove the "whatis" file for ports where it does not contain anything
useful and hasn't been updated for years. OK tsutsui@, hubertf@.

pavel afa2ab7f6c Clear the old list of changes (between NetBSD 2.0 and 3.0 releases) as a
preparation for filling the list of changes between NetBSD 3.0 and 4.0
releases. In some obsolete claims like "this is the n-th major releae of
NetBSD for the xyz platform" replace n by XXX.

mishka 64c7b74aad PR/13749 - Incorrect options specified for dd(1) in tape installs.
Cleanup dd options accordingly to the following policy:
    1) put if, of, bs, conv in this order
    2) for reading/writing from/to disk don't use sync
    4) reading from tape - use sync
    3) writing to tape - use osync

Noted by Don Yuniskis (auryn at gci-net.com) via install/13749. Thanks!

ross 01fd915146 Update text since there are now three install floppies. It's
written to cover the 2-floppy case as well, so if this file is
updated later with delta's needed on netbsd-2-0, this one revision
does not need to be excluded.

jhawk a5c0fa3864 Based on feedback (various), remove the .toc files from CVS,
and instead generate them each and every time (twice!).
Based on a suggestion from Alan Barrett, allow setting MAKETOC=no
to permit rebuilding the install notes without regenerating the
.toc files, to allow more speedy debugging of markup changes.

garbled 851ee9e397 1) Remove all vestiges of tar from src/distrib. Use pax and appropriate
commandlines for all tar operations.  (work supplied by Matt Green)
2) Update arch/*/md.c to deal with new sysinst/run.c.  Special case
anything that needs to do a redirect or a pipe.
3) #if 0 some unused code in target.c. This code will need to be updated,
or special cased with do_system.

Big thank you to Matt for all his work on this.
