name the directory "02.config" as it historically was, name it config, so
that if we ever want to update this book for the modern age, we can move
chapters around, delete them, etc, without mass confusion.
* 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.
can find.
If the initiator discovers too many targets for it to handle
(currently more than 16), then truncate to the maximum with a loud
warning message, rather than aborting.
In practice, this means that multiple targets can now be used with the
NetBSD iSCSI initiator.

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.
volumes that are migrating such as when you change the stripe size.
While I'm here use the same string than we had in the old framework to
report status "online" vs "drive is online", because the sensor might be
a RAID volume and not just a drive.
