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...

\*V will run on most HP 9000/300- and 400-series machines.
The smallest amount of RAM that has been tested is 4 MB. If you wish to
run X, more RAM is recommended.

Here is a table of recommended HD partition sizes for a full install:
.Bl -column -offset indent Partition Suggested Needed
.It Partition Ta Suggested Ta Needed
.It root\ (/) Ta "25 MB" Ta "15 MB"
.It /usr Ta "150 MB" Ta "100 MB"

.(Note
The hp300 installation procedure uses a `miniroot' filesystem
which is placed into the swap area of the disk. The swap partition
must be large enough to hold this miniroot image.

.It [1]
400-series machines configured for Domain/OS
are not fully supported.
Notably, the keyboard doesn't work and the ROMs must be in `HP-UX mode'.
.It [2]
SCSI-II drives are known to work,
though this may require changing a
jumper on some drives. See your disk's documentation for details.
.It [3]
Serial mice connected to a `HIL to quad'
converter are also known to work.
