jym | Reinstate INSTALL kernel for embedded ramdisk installs.
Reasons being:
- INSTALL is GENERIC with an embedded ramdisk, and as such, can benefit from
features included within.
- INSTALL_FLOPPY has its own config(5) file, and is tailored for "small"
floppy images; it misses features/drivers that could be needed to boot
in a decent environment for recent x86 machines (like ACPI)
- makes it closer to floppies distrib available for amd64
While here, comment out INSTALL_FLOPPY and bootfloppy-big image build. NetBSD
does not use the 3.6MiB image for El Torito cdroms anymore.
Remove the FLOPPYMAX limit; i386 needs 4 floppies now. Modify boot.cfg and
release/contents to reflect reality.
See http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-i386/2011/02/08/msg002307.html
No comments, no objections.

For PR kern/38537:
- Make MULTIPROCESSOR mandatory on i386.
Installation changes:
- Update installation section of release notes to match reality.
- Rename INSTALL to INSTALL_FLOPPY, retire INSTALL_LARGE.
- Build INSTALL kernel from GENERIC, like on amd64.
- Update boot menu to allow disabling ACPI and/or SMP.
- Remove GENERIC.NOACPI from the installed kernel list.
- TODO: install default boot.cfg in etc.tgz.
- TODO: possibly enable PCI fixup stuff at runtime if ACPI is disabled.
Build changes:
- No longer build ALL, it's for verification, is slow to build and the
build process is already crippled by the number of kernels built.
- No longer build GENERIC.NOACPI.

Per consensus on tech-install, take "bootN.fs" and "boot-comN.fs" to three
floppies. (The build is broken again without this.) "boot-big1.fs", from
the same ramdisk as "bootN.fs", still just fits in 2880KB by virtue of the
fact that the 9KB of padding is only added once per floppy image.

lukem | Consistently use "netbsd-XXXXX" instead of "netbsd.XXXXX".
|
| 1.9 | 14-Oct-2002 |
lukem | Merge kernel-ramdisk & kernel-rescue into instkernel, now that
../../common/Makefile.mdset supports building multiple copies of the
same kernel (as long as they're to separate filenames).
Now there's no need to set FLOPPYKERNDIR, as it now defaults to instkernel.

| 1.8 | 16-Apr-2002 |
lukem | - Convert to using distrib/common/buildfloppies.sh, which can build both
single and multi-volume floppies in better fashion that the crufty
shell commands in the various Makefiles.
- Move fdset* -> bootfloppy*, as that's more consistent
