 1.15  12-Oct-2006  pavel branches: 1.15.18; 1.15.26; 1.15.28;
Apply patch from Hauke Fath to solve port-mac68k/29049: sysinst did not
newfs and mount the target filesystem.

In Hauke's words: "Basically, the mac68k md_make_bsd_partitions() function,
which replaces the MI make_bsd_partitions() because the mac68k port does not
have an on-disk BSD disklabel, neglected to sign up BSD partitions for
newfs'ing and mounting by setting the appropriate flags."

Revert the commit to the install notes (rev. 1.14 of notes/mac68k/prep) which
added a warning and a workaround for this bug, as requested by hubertf in the
PR log.
 1.14  15-Dec-2005  hubertf Add text for workaround of sysinst not running newfs etc. as described
in PR mac68k/29049. Text for the workaround mostly provided by Hauke Fath.
 1.13  19-Jul-2002  scottr branches: 1.13.2; 1.13.4; 1.13.6; 1.13.8;
This is a complete refit of the mac68k documentation.

installation using sysinst, provided (and updated) by Bob Nestor.
 1.12  29-Jun-2002  lukem clean up whitespace and formatting
 1.11  29-Oct-2000  lukem branches: 1.11.2;
more work:
- use .Tn, .Bx, .Ul, .Key, .Sq, .Dq, .Li, .Dl, (etc) ... as appropriate
- be more consistent between various ports' install notes
- other cleanups
 1.10  10-Oct-2000  lukem 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...

Remove reference to a 14 year old IP address for ftp.NetBSD.org.
This is not a joke.
--
mention etcupdate and reorder a bit
--
first pass de-suckification for 2015. modernize content a bit, fix dirty
rotten lies, improve wording, sync legalese with reality, yada yada yada.
--
This product includes software developed by Yasushi Yamasaki.
--
- update upgrade issues:
+ ARM ABI change
+ new users
+ new groups
- add modules set where missing
- formatting improvements
- note that rtsol{,d} will be gone in the future
- fix raw partition info
- update sparc64 hardware support
- remove note about sparc SMP support being broken

minimums lingering -- HI PORTMASTERS!)
- various other minor content modernization
- whitespace fixes
--
finish removing the set size stuff, which was thrown out four years ago.
--
merge port-specific legal sections into the common file. most of these
entries were already in the common file, and it's a pain to maintain
them separately.
--
don't look for now-gone sparc/legal
--
restore rcsid accidentally deleted in previous
--
bah. this time without a typo.
