Add -lprop to the ramdisk build, so that it builds again, due to
recent changes in newfs. Bump the ramdisk size from 1536 to 1800
blocks as a consequence.

branches: 1.18.32;
add comment and fix whitespace.

consistency cleanup

- convert to New Distrib World Order, which allows this directory to be
cross-built without root privileges. (tested i386->sparc cross-build).
- remove now-unused cruft

XXX: there's still other parts of distrib/sparc that need fixing.

Add `eject'.

Remove mount(8) since we can use the fs-specific versions directly.
Add umount(8) (scaled-down version).
Add reboot/halt.

Boot from floppy now requires two disk images:
- a bootable bootfs which contains a spartan md-based `ramdisk'
filesystem, which loads the tar file image:
- instfs, which is constructed from the miniroot filesystem
and contains all installation utilities.

The current miniroot image also supersedes the former separate
{bootfs,ramdisk}.sysinst tools.

branches: 1.12.2;
Need /etc/netconfig.

Remove update from the miniroot lists.

Pull in the IPSECless version of ping.

branches: 1.9.4;
miniroot changes:
install.sub:
- fix interface grovelling, ifmedia support, allow ifmedia and link
to have a "none" (-> "") answer (which lets you give nothing when
a default answer is given)
- allow installing more than one set at a time, including "all" as
a synonym for all remaining sets
- mount -o async when extracting sets
makeconf.awk:
- put default "libs" section at the end rather than the start, so
you can put other "libs" in before this list
- minor cleanup

mtree.conf:
- create /kern

sparc install.md:
- MDSETS are now "kern xbase xcomp xcontrib xfont xserver"
- use /kern & kernfs (replaces dmesg)
- replace grep & cut pipe lines with sed
- replace grep hackery with sed hackery
- grep and cut are no longer required! yay!
- deal with no /usr/bin/vi -- call disklabel -i
- in md_copy_kern() link the netbsd.GENERIC we got from the kern set,
rather than the miniroot kernel
sparc miniroot list:
- no more dmesg, cut or grep

sparc ramdisk changes:
Makefile:
- `ramdiskbin.conf' is now generated by makeconf.awk
- don't use libhack's opendir, it breaks
dot.profile:
- don't assume terminal is `sun'
- set EDITOR=ed
-
list:
- instbin -> ramdiskbin to make `makeconf.awk' work
- CRUNCHSPECIAL those special dirs
- add our LIBS as necessary

libhack changes:
- if NOLIBHACKOPENDIR is set, don't build opendir.o

- add more i-nodes to ramdisk image
- make ramdisk/list work again with object directories
- make OS revision part of the images file names (like miniroot).

branches: 1.7.2; 1.7.4;
- share more with the miniroot
- don't use sysinst yet, it's not ready for the sparc, go back to
the old miniroot install programs.

- add these programs:
- pppd (nice to install from an SS2 with local floppy & modem only)
- bzip2 (media may be bz2'ed in the RFSN future)
- edlabel (much ligher weight than disklabel)
- expr (miniroot)
- hostname (miniroot)
- netstat (miniroot)
- sort (miniroot)

- remove these programs:
- tset (not used)
- strings (too big now)
- slattach (who uses slip these days, *really* ? see pppd addition)
- disklabel (see edlabel addition)
- shutdown (have reboot/halt already)
- sysinst (not using it yet)

- grow the install filesystem a bit more, to facilitate the new programs.

- use gordons libhack stuff, to reduce the size of the install binary.
- don't need /etc/master.passwd or the {s,}pwd.db files anymore!

- clean up dot.profile a bit.

move distrib/sparc/floppies/* into distrib/sparc, so that the boot image
can be accessed for cdrom systems. rename "bootfloppy" to "bootfs" as it
is used for cdroms, not just floppies :) adjust paths as necessary for
this merge.

--- done via repository copy.

add link for tar/cpio, fix mount_mfs, and add kernfs

add mount_mfs, getopt, use the src MAKEDEV and disktab files. ln less more

add /usr/sbin/update, sun, xterm, and tvi925 termcaps, and a disktab.preinstall file.

rename INSTALL FLOPPY. add tset.
