839a072b21 Use Subsection headers instead of Symbol macro 
for a few headers. This makes this consistent with the
other boot.8 manual pages.
(I am guessing a typo was done one time and then duplicated to few
other man pages. I noticed when looking at print version which had
all architecture boot.8 pages.)

43148f18f3 Add architecture to the man page headers. 
This is an optional argument to .Dt.

I noticed in printed docs, that format(8) didn't mention "vax".
Then I saw a few others were missing too. This makes it consistent
with some others there.

If this is wrong, then these files shouldn't be in the architecture
specific directories.

802860abdb When MAKEDEV creates a memory file system, let it try mount_tmpfs(8) 
before falling back to mount_mfs(8).  Also calculate required number

beae89cd6d In MAKEDEV.tmpl: 
* Add a nooutput function to be used instead of redirecting to /dev/null,
  because /dev/null might not exist early in the boot sequence.  This
  should fix a bug in which the pax autodetection failed when used from
  init(8) with a read-only root file system without a /dev/null.
* Move most of the main program into a new makedev_main function,
  to allow reuse by MAKEDEV.local.

In MAKEDEV.local:
* Use the new makedev_main function defined in MAKEDEV.  This allows
  MAKEDEV.local to support all the options understood by MAKEDEV, instead
  of only a subset.  This should fix a bug in which the setup() function
  could try to use pax mode even though that was previously not supported.

In MAKEDEV.local man page:
* Update list of command line options.
* Don't explain all the options, just refer to MAKEDEV(8) man page.
* Remove BUGS section now that all MAKEDEV options are supported
  by MAKEDEV.local.

man8/man8.i386/dosboot.8, and man8/man8.i386/pxeboot.8.

* In all:
  - First few lines of each man page should be .Dd, .Os, .Dt, .Nm;
  - Use Nx; new sentence, new line; serial comma;
  - Update comments about which files to keep in sync.
* In MI boot(8):
  - add reference to architecture-specific boot(8);
  - add commented-out reference to boot.cfg(5);
  - reinstate BUGS heading that was lost when the MI boot.8 was
    created from i386 boot.8.
* In i386 boot.8:
  - mention -x and -z flags;
  - we can boot from media other than floppy, or from the network;
  - remove first paragraph in BUGS section now that an MI boot(8)
    man page exists.
* In i386 dosboot.8 and pxeboot.8:
  - mention -c, -x, and -z flags.

6d3d3ebe02 * MAKEDEV's "-M -M" option was always intended for use only by init(8). 
Improve the documentation around that.
* The "-p pax", "-m mknod", and "-s" (mtree specfile) options should
  always have been mutually exclusive.  Now enforce that.
* The "-f" option didn't ever work with pax or mtree mode; document that,
  and make it an error to try something that won't work.
* Make pax mode the default, if no other options prevent this, and if
  "pax -w -M" appears to be usable.
* Add missing options to a usage message.
