# 215016 08-Nov-2010 jhb

Remove support for autoloading ACPI from the loader. Leave in the code to
detect ACPI and export info such as the location of the RSDP via hints as
that is still useful.


# 180208 03-Jul-2008 peter

Set magic fbsd:nokeywords property that allows files to bypass
keyword expansion. (file-specific replacement for CVSROOT/exclude)


# 162743 28-Sep-2006 jhb

Add an 'smap' command that dumps out the BIOS SMAP.

MFC after: 1 week


# 138249 01-Dec-2004 scottl

Remove the last vestiges of the userconfig option. None of this actually
did anything, so this commit should be considered a NO-OP.


# 135967 30-Sep-2004 ru

Document boot_cdrom, boot_multicons, and boot_serial.
Reduce diffs between help.common and loader(8).
Mention that boot_userconfig is currently a no-op.


# 102612 30-Aug-2002 iwasaki

s/hint.acpi.0.disable/hint.acpi.0.disabled/

Fix device hints entry for disabling acpi(4).
This also should fix the arbitration with apm(4) when both drivers
are enabled.

Note that your /boot/device.hints needs to be updated if you want to
stop auto-loading acpi.ko or disable acpi(4).


# 101602 09-Aug-2002 iwasaki

Add help about hint.acpi.0.disable.


# 82542 29-Aug-2001 msmith

Mention that the ACPI module load can be disabled by unsetting $acpi_load


# 43115 23-Jan-1999 msmith

Document root_disk_unit


# 41822 15-Dec-1998 msmith

Reformat help to improve subtopic display appearance, other minor
cleaning. The 'help' command in the loader should now be usable and
hopefully informative.


# 41821 15-Dec-1998 msmith

Build the composite help file from the generic and architecture-specific
help files, sorting topics and subtopics to allow maximum flexibility.


# 40775 31-Oct-1998 msmith

- Add a new command 'lsdev' to list devices which might be likely to host
filesystems.
- New 'help' command and data in the help.* files (not yet installed),
provides topic and subtopic help, indexes, etc.
- Don't crash if the user tries to set an invalid console. Be helpful
instead.
- Expand tabs (badly) on the i386 video console.
- Some minor cosmetic changes.
