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!
Reviewed by <martin>. Thank you!

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: 
- use .Tn, .Bx, .Ul, .Key, .Sq, .Dq, .Li, .Dl, (etc) ... as appropriate
- be more consistent between various ports' install notes
- other cleanups
 2000-10-29 14:08:04 +00:00
leo f8c9315cac Mention the fact that you can delay partitioning disks until you are 
actually in the installer. Even when you want to use an AHDI compatible
disk layout.

lukem 54b38d4691 - update whatis files to contain (hopefully) up to date info on: 
- "this is the xxx major release"
	- features added and bugs fixed in 1.5
- use .Nx instead of NetBSD
- use .Sq instead of ' [...] ' or ` [ ... ] '
- use .Dq instead of " [...] "

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...
 2000-10-10 12:55:15 +00:00
lukem c8d0b98254 migrate */contents -> common/contents, as there was *way* too much 
unnecessary duplication.  wrap the MD stuff in  .if r_foo \{\  ...  .\}
