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.

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!
* The direction flag wasn't set right in the presence of ROMDEBUG.
* There were missing data32's.
* We weren't as careful as we should be with relocations.
to be the logarithm to base 2 of the alignment, in an ELF environment n is
the actual alignment boundary; thus, adjust the directives accordingly.
Albeit the wonderful i386 architecture doesn't mind the smaller alignment in
an obvious way, it is likely to have resulted in some performance penalty
during the a.out->ELF transition.
older CHS interface. This works around stupid BIOSs who report that
int13 extensions are present and functional, but fail when you actually
use them. Like Adaptec SCSI BIOSs.
