Even after almost a lost decade since NetBSD/luna68k was
switched to using ELF format by default back in 2001,
actually only one fix (bus.h) is required for a GENERIC kernel itself
to get multiuser login: prompt on a real hardware. Hurrahhh!!!
Demonstrated with a working Xorg mono server on the NetBSD booth
at Open Source Conference 2011 Kansai @ Kyoto:

"Very impressed," commented by Tomoko YOSHIDA,
Program Committee Chair of the Conference,
and some other OMRON guys.
Special Thanks to Tadashi Okamura, for providing
a working SX-9100/DT "LUNA" for this mission.
Changes details:
sys/arch/luna68k/include/bus.h
- handle stride properly even on multi and region ops for MI spc(4)
- also fix stride handling of (currently unused) 2 and 4 byte ops
sys/arch/luna68k/conf/Makefile.luna68k
sys/arch/luna68k/conf/kern.ldscript.head
sys/arch/luna68k/conf/kern.ldscript.tail
- build a faked a.out kernel using elf2aout(8) tool
and a linker script derived from cats and shark
for the LUNA firmware that loads a.out binary directly
via network or from a UNIOS partition on a local disk
sys/arch/luna68k/dev/omrasops.c
sys/arch/luna68k/dev/omron_rfont.h
- use the original OMRON font derived from 4.4BSD-Lite/luna68k
rather than gallant19 which is used on Sun workstations
(XXX omrasops.c should be rewritten to use generic wsfont(4))
distrib/luna68k/*
distrib/utils/sysinst/arch/luna68k/*
etc/etc.luna68k/MAKEDEV.conf
etc/etc.luna68k/Makefile.inc
sys/arch/luna68k/conf/INSTALL
- build a ramdisk based INSTALL kernel with sysinst(8) for luna68k
- also build an installation iso image for luna68k
sys/arch/luna68k/conf/GENERIC
- enable SYSVSHM (and other SYSV*) options for Xorg server
More Xorg changes (which need some more cleanup) and
isiboot.c fixes will come soon.
is safe to remove a "floppy" now) into two parts: md_hello to tell MD
specific informations (empty on most archs), and md_may_remove_boot_medium,
which is only added if md_may_remove_boot_medium() says so - by default only
say so on non local / filesystems, and never if / is on CD/DVD.
Fixes first part of PR 44738.

NetBSD/emips port runs on Xilinx and Beecube FPGA systems and the
Giano system simulator.
eMIPS is a platform developed at Microsoft Research for researching
reconfigurable computing. eMIPS allows dynamic loading and scheduling
of application-specific circuits for the purpose of accelerating
computations based on the current workload.
NetBSD eMIPS support for NetBSD 4.x was written at Microsoft Research
by Alessandro Forin and Neil Pittman. Microsoft Corporation has
donated full copyright to The NetBSD Foundation.
Platform support for eMIPS is the first part of Microsoft's
contribution. The second part includes the hardware accelerator
framework and will be proposed on tech-kern soon.
Users who really really really want to change the default setting can
continue to change their cipher algorithm right after a clean install
by modifying /etc/passwd.conf and regenerating the root password if
previously set by sysinst.
per running INSTALL kernel name taken from sysctl kern.version.
XXX: on all arm ports, sysctl hw.cpu_model returns a processor name,
XXX: not machine model as mentioned in <sys/sysctl.h>.
XXX1: I don't think it's worth to keep bad144 for modern flash devices.
XXX2: Should we still maintain non-English translations without a maintainer
even after we removed www translations?
Use IPAQ and JORNADA720 instead in messages per md.h.
XXX1: hpcarm seems to have more kernels.
XXX2: hpcarm doesn't have a common INSTALL kernel so
choosing a kernel set during sysinst doesn't make sense.

validate at least slightly and ignore if the entries are not properly
0 terminated or contain controll characters.
