725d029d19 Remove INSTWDCPCM, because for a while now, GENERIC (and INSTALL) have
included both pcmcia support, and wdc instead of idesc as the driver for
the Amiga internal ATA connector.

ff83c8aba1 track change in -mdoc2html, and set DOC_XR so that .Xr macros don't
actually generate hypertext links to the man pages, like they do
know when the pages themselves are formatted. The obvious problem
is that if you aren't a man page, you don't know where the man
pages are.

Forgot to put PowerComputing PowerCenter in list of models that can't use
 on-board video

macppc/prep
Reword four-key-combo c-o-O-F to imply you need to hold all four down
 until the 0 > prompt appears, also a better description of the keys
shuffle System Disk instructions around a little to make more sense
Fix BootVars instruction to "uncheck auto-boot?"
Change '.Dl 0 \*> Ic "..."' to '.No 0 \*> Ic "..."' surrounded by .(disp
Link to new FAQ entries (such as how to use the Open Firmware environment

Describe how to prepare an MS-DOS filesystem for booting
Be more consistent about "ISO9660"
The NetBSD/macppc boot CD-R image has "partition zero" bootloader and
 XCOFF bootloader to work on all models -- this is described better now
Better info on how to netboot OF 1.0.5 systems
Mention that UFS is not currently supported by NetBSD and MacOS < 10
Detab the dhcpd.conf example
Add .To 2 tags for preparation of bootable media subsections

353e1ce493 Clean this up for a proper cross-build setup.
1. Replace all "groff"'s with $GROFF so the right binary is picked up depending
on new or old toolchain setups and USETOOLS
2. Remove the DESTDIR check where it adds -M. This is pointless as some of the
file in share/tmac have hard coded references to /usr/share/tmac so using the
new ones in $DESTDIR will just point you back into /usr/share anyways...
(the new toolchain has no issue here as it's tmac files all point into
$TOOLDIR. Any old setups should just depend on the local setup instead of
some mix of DESTDIR and old files the -M would have produced).

9403ea63a5 Mirror change made by jhawk while I was writing the NetBSD/evbarm
release notes (and thus missed updating the NetBSD/evbarm notes):

Based on feedback (various), remove the .toc files from CVS,
and instead generate them each and every time (twice!).

/dev/console)

86e4569262 First cut at installation notes for NetBSD/evbarm. Needs some
fleshing-out (and general "how to set up diskless environment"
instructions in the ../common directory).

Supported hardware and setup for the Intel IQ80310 board is written.

I've filled in the supported-hardware bits for the ARM Integrator
board, but someone (HI RICHARD! :-) will need to provide info about
setting up the firmware for booting and typical run-time environments
for this board.

a5c0fa3864 Based on feedback (various), remove the .toc files from CVS,
and instead generate them each and every time (twice!).
Based on a suggestion from Alan Barrett, allow setting MAKETOC=no
to permit rebuilding the install notes without regenerating the
.toc files, to allow more speedy debugging of markup changes.

dccb6e675f Add .Te and .To macros for explicit additions to the table of contents.
.Te adds an entry at a specified depth and also outputs the entry name
in the output stream, .To "only" adds the entry. .To is necessaary where
markup issues prevent the use of .Te.

5b9bb2cf9d Remove TOC entry for Sh; there are only 3 of them and they're
all on page one and they add needless clutter. Additionally
  doc2html doesn't output a tag for them, so we cannot link to them.
  Lower indent level for Ss and Ss2
Add special HTML support: emit an HREF on each TOC line. There's some
  nasty kludging with extending the dot-leader tab stop by the width
  of the href, but that's life in mdoc2html.

TOCs need to be regenerated, but I'm not going to bother for a while.

c2c3e49e52 Add a table of contents (TOC) to the release notes.
This makes it _much_ more user-friendly, as it allows users
  to skip to the parts they want easily.
At present, the TOCs are generated files, and can be regenerated
  with "make tocs" (probably has to be run twice to account for
  the size of the table itself).
TOCs are named INSTALL.{PostScript,ASCII,HTML,more}.toc instead of
  INSTALL.{ps,txt,html,more}.toc because that's what \*[format]
  expands to.
