b2791a870b Remove ugly port ifdefs around install media of MS-DOS floppy and Tape.
I don't think users will complain that their machine doesn't have it,
and it's worthless to maintain which ports support these devices or not.

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.

529cc0c586 Apply patch from Hauke Fath to solve port-mac68k/29049: sysinst did not
newfs and mount the target filesystem.

In Hauke's words: "Basically, the mac68k md_make_bsd_partitions() function,
which replaces the MI make_bsd_partitions() because the mac68k port does not
have an on-disk BSD disklabel, neglected to sign up BSD partitions for
newfs'ing and mounting by setting the appropriate flags."

Revert the commit to the install notes (rev. 1.14 of notes/mac68k/prep) which
added a warning and a workaround for this bug, as requested by hubertf in the
PR log.

4402b3f15c Install notes into ${RELEASEDIR}/${RELEASEMACHINEDIR}, not
${RELEASEDIR}/${MACHINE}.  The former is the blessed way as it's
defined as a "subdirectory used below ${RELEASEDIR} when building a
release" and defaults to MACHINE in bsd.own.mk.

Make sure that ${RELEASEDIR}/${RELEASEMACHINEDIR} exists before
installing notes in to it.  It only ever worked because ~all ports
build at least one kernel as part of make release, and so the release
directory was created when kernel sets are installed.

XXX: Why don't we create ${RELEASEDIR}/${RELEASEMACHINEDIR} from the
top-level makefile before running make release?

ff57609c26 Update this script so it works correctly with the current format of
http://www.netbsd.org/People/port-maintainers.html .

Also, clarify some comments, escape a backlash so that the correct
macro for ø is generated, and make sure it's substituted everywhere
in the name.

This script is still not perfect - it will produce incorrect output
the first time that the second portmaster has a hyperlink associated
with his name.  For now, though, it generates correct output for
what we've got.

 * Fix mentions of "set_name.xx" for the AmigaDOS installation
 * x68k: fix to tell where to get "netbsd" from (how to run gzip.x on
   netbsd-INSTALL.gz on the x86k's native OS?)
 * Someone please either re-summon PS/2 "boot-ps2.fs" or remove the note on it
 * Tape install:
	.Dl # Ic "cd \*M/binary"
	.Dl # Ic "tar -cf" Ar tape_device Ic "misc etc kern"
   That doesn't work with today's set format (binary/sets/misc.tgz ...)
