hubertf f898d4a492 Several changes to our release notes, OK'd by Luke Mewburn:
* mention additional kernels in binary/kernel/ dir: GENERIC_LAPTOP, etc
  * note that we also include firewall software (besides X, ...)
  * don't Xref the BUGS file, as it's gone
  * update some file sizes (source .tgz files) to match BETA2
  * mention that syssrc contains the source for all architectures
  * Sysinst now allows setting root password and timezone - note that.
  * Explain how to actually install binary packages, giving some
    examples that people may want to install.
  * Mention rawrite32 near rawrite.
  * Don't show preparation of install tape on i386
  * update i386 hardware a bit. This needs to be generated automatically...
  * Many minor nits & typos.
