dependent files:
- Use infrastructure from distrib/common to build file system images with
crunchgen-ed programs from a list file.
- Non root ("UNPRIVED") builds from a read-only source tree are possible,
as makefs(8) replaces vnconfig(8)/vnd use, devices are generated using
common/makedev2spec.awk, etc.
- Cross builds should be possible, except that some ports need cross-compile
host tool versions of installboot and any appropriate host disk labelling
tools.
XXX: pmax, sparc and vax need fixing for this!
- This code has NOT YET BEEN TESTED on most of the ports.
It should work, but it is extremely likely that the file system
parameters may need tweaking to get things to fit.
See MAKEFS_FLAGS in sparc/miniroot/Makefile.inc for an example.
If assistance is required, please ask!
detect a 'miniroot' disklabel. Booting from the diskimage will now get
the real disk geometry and adjust the incore disklabel parameters
accordingly.
Also revert back to using a prototype file - disklabel truncates the
disktype to 15 characters when using the disktab entry, but will use 16
characters when using the prototype file.

in sets/lists/*. The sript sets/makeobsolete concatenates the mi and md
obsolete list files all or a specified set and dumps it in a file, in a
subdir specified on the command line (inspired from the maketar and makeflist
files).
Use this for all the sysinst-based installs.
Untested for non-i386, and the md obsolete list may be wrong or incomplete.
Each postmaster is supposed to check this on his port.
- Remove *.cro files and not the obsoleted *.lo files.
From Bill Studenmund commit message:
> 3) Generate .cro files rather than .lo files. .lo now is used for "local
> objects" - obj's for the host machine not the target machine.
