simonb 9bb5785535 Adjust a couple of things to use less temporary space:
+ build the passwd file before copying in ramdiskbin
 + don't copy MAKEDEV, run it, then delete it - run it in-place from
   ${.CURDIR}/...../etc.i386/MAKEDEV
Also, use LINK instead of SYMLINK for files under /usr - it's not a
separate filesystem.

Fixes PR misc/11473 and port-i386/11504 (until something else grows
again).

provided more detail when necessary and removed extraneous instructions.

hardware: totally revamped to be more readable and include all known
supported hardware, now matches htdocs/Ports/sparc/hardware.html

install: new section on CD-ROM, netboot has instructions on setting up a
NetBSD server, removed disklabel instructions (miniroot/sysboot's
instructions are clear enough and have error-checking anyways)

prep: reorganized, put in cleaner explanation of SCSI target remapping on
OpenBOOT PROM 1 machines, put in instructions on how to figure out names
ROM uses for SCSI device, put in info about 100BaseTX network cards

upgrade: now points to ../common/upgrade

	- instfs, which is constructed from the miniroot filesystem
	  and contains all installation utilities.

The current miniroot image also supersedes the former separate

fvdl ead80bd575 Stress that if a match is found between a disk device and a BIOS disk,
you really should not be changing the geometry values, unless they
look totally ridiculous due to some BIOS bug.

Disable manual entering of initial partition label values when doing
a custom label. The step was redundant. Just go to the label edit
directly, leaving everything but the c and d partitions empty.
2000-10-17 19:50:39 +00:00

where another one ends, and ending partitions where another one start,
or at the start of the disk / until the end of the disk.

* Sprinkle some touchwin() calls here and there to make the output cleaner.
