wiz 172a4c32bd From dieter roelants in PR 35169:
- While reading install/12957 it was suggested
	(http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-i386/2006/11/27/0000.html)
	that all notes, marked with '[PCMCIA]' should go and be
	replaced with a more generic explanation about removable
	devices.
	- I noticed the HTML output concatenates 'NetBSD' and '4.0',
	which is ugly.
	- The IP addresses for ftp.NetBSD.org are wrong.

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!

rafal a1489321a2 Fix up sgimips install sections to more closely correspond to the current
state of reality: comment out O2 references since 1.6 won't support the
O2, add notes on installing via a net-booted kernel, disk partitioning
(disk must have IRIX volhdr, one-disk split NetBSD/IRIX install has not
been tested and may/may not work).  Also expand/add some examples.

XXX: Should add info on the "extra" kernel sets like the INSTALL_INDY,
etc. sets.
