martin 9fa6cbad23 Document debug sets and kernel module directory. 2018-06-24 09:17:58 +00:00
snj 83a500f842 merge port-specific legal sections into the common file. most of these
entries were already in the common file, and it's a pain to maintain
them separately.

tsutsui ab8e3da666 Move common/contents file into MD dirs again.
I know it isn't a good thing to have many copy-and-pasted contents
(set file descriptions etc) in all MD files, but it's much more annoying
to maintain a bunch of .if \n [${MACHINE}] conditionals for all ports
and maintainers rarely notice that they also have to prepare or update
MD contents in MI content file with messy ifdefs.

XXX: of course common text should be shared by mdoc macro etc.
     but I doubt playing mdoc(7) is really worth...

pavel 4195ecc3d2 Make the port-specific changelog ($MACHINE/whatis) optional by using .pso
to call a shell script which outputs nothing if the file is not present.

Remove the "whatis" file for ports where it does not contain anything
useful and hasn't been updated for years. OK tsutsui@, hubertf@.

martin 3837d02a37 Fix PR install/34375 by fixing a few filenames. 2006-11-26 15:44:07 +00:00
mishka 64c7b74aad PR/13749 - Incorrect options specified for dd(1) in tape installs.
Cleanup dd options accordingly to the following policy:
    1) put if, of, bs, conv in this order
    2) for reading/writing from/to disk don't use sync
    4) reading from tape - use sync
    3) writing to tape - use osync

Noted by Don Yuniskis (auryn at gci-net.com) via install/13749. Thanks!

lukem f9d025b03b as sun3x is now part of sun3, we can't test for a sun3x machine register.
rewrite appropriate paragraphs to be relevant for either sun3 or sun3x.

lukem 86448dfa2c - convert sun2/upgrade to use ../sun3/upgrade, rather than unnecessarily

jhawk 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.

mycroft 149f0de4fa Use bsd.man.mk (maybe should be something else) instead of bsd.prog.mk, and
do the cleaning differently.

lukem 1742d8acf0 more work:

- be more consistent between various ports' install notes
- other cleanups

- use .Sq instead of ' [...] ' or ` [ ... ] '

lukem b4d52d9d24 major terraform (this is MUCH more than a rototill :-), including:
- update for 1.5 (still more MD stuff to check)
- use new macros in ../common/macros as appropriate
- introduce some CONSISTENCY between the various ports' install docs
- use various mdoc macros as appropriate, including .Li, .Pa, .Sy, and .Ic.
- migrate more stuff into ../common/*
- whitespace cleanup
- lots of other little things i'm sure...

ross c130e42b2e * Delete sun3x from SUBDIR
* The merged contents file didn't work out, so nuke it and put it back
  into each port directory. Most still have the now-pointless conditionals;
  these now should be deleted.
* fix alpha, amiga, and arm32 to delete the maze of twisty little conditionals

garbled 851ee9e397 1) Remove all vestiges of tar from src/distrib. Use pax and appropriate
commandlines for all tar operations.  (work supplied by Matt Green)
2) Update arch/*/md.c to deal with new sysinst/run.c.  Special case
anything that needs to do a redirect or a pipe.
3) #if 0 some unused code in target.c. This code will need to be updated,
or special cased with do_system.

Big thank you to Matt for all his work on this.
