mbw 4251d93aae postinstall: add conditionals for hp300, macppc, and sparc
sysinst:        tsubai-san says that macppc doesn't suffer from install-related
                pcmcia interrupt problems.  removed those for macppc

upgrade:        add conditional for macppc and sparc (don't need to boot
                from floppy)

lukem 26f3b13e17 more cleanups
- use .Ic, .Pa, .Key, .Ul, .Tn, .Sq, .Dq as appropriate
- use .Dl instead of .(disp when formatting changes are required (the latter
  doesn't cope too well when font change macros are used)
- wrap .Dl blocks with .Pp
- consistently use `file system' instead of `filesystem'
- migrate macppc to common/xfer
