# 153298 10-Dec-2005 dougb

Remove rcconf.sh from /etc/rc.d, and instead load the configuration
as part of rc. Doing this, and the sourcing of rc.subr after we have
determined if we are booting diskless (and correspondingly run
rc.initdiskless if necessary) are safe, and actually allow fewer files
to be needed on the diskless box. This also allows variables from
the configuration to be available to rc itself, such as ...

Add a variable to rc.conf, early_late_divider, which designates the
script which separates the early and late stages of the boot process.
Default this to mountcritlocal, and add text to etc/defaults/rc.conf,
rc.conf(5) and diskless(8) which describes how and why one might want
to change this.

# 151202 10-Oct-2005 yar

Replace "/etc/make.conf" with references to make.conf(5)
where applicable. The main reason for this change is that
the location of make.conf is not constant and can be
modified via __MAKE_CONF. This change also improves
hyper-text linkage in our manpages.

# 124355 10-Jan-2004 rwatson

Update the diskless(8) documentation to indicate that the use of the
kernel BOOTP options is *not* required if the boot loader can pass
network configuration information to the kernel using the kernel
environment. As such, PXE doesn't require them. However, the NFS
options are required in the kernel (previously not documented).

Mention entropy_dir="NO" in diskless.8, since /var is an md-backed
file system and as such will not preserve its contents across boot.


# 87005 27-Nov-2001 rwatson

Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

.\" $Id$
.\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.
