 1.2  22-Apr-2019  maya Express more confidence in our ability to boot on hardware with ACPI
enabled and don't warn our users that it might not and already suggest
workarounds.

The ability to disable ACPI and SMP is still there, by dropping to
the boot prompt.
 1.1  22-Jan-2012  tsutsui branches: 1.1.4; 1.1.44;
Add "live-image" and "install-image" target support to build.sh.

"live-image" target builds pre-installed disk images that can be used on
emulators or boot from USB memory sticks to try NetBSD without installation.
Currently amd64, i386, pmax, sparc, sparc64, sun2, sun3, and vax
(which have working emulators and don't require extra tools like preparing
msdosfs or partitioning MD label structures) support this target.

"install-image" target builds an bootable installation disk image that can
be used as an install CD but burned into USB memory sticks etc.
Current only amd64 and i386 (which would support USB boot) have this target.
