The file:/usr/src/sys/i386/boot/biosboot/README.386BSD is probably false,
but I don't have a checked out tree at hand, and I'd rather would let that
point to some http or ftp source (at least alternatively). Will check later
today.

clean up the build process a wee bit.
The basic change: instead of cheacking out bits and pieces of the
doc tree into the web build tree, check out the doc tree somewhere
else and put in a few symlinks from the web tree to the doc tree.
On catfish (soon to be hub) for example:
/usr/local/www/build/doc/...
/usr/local/www/build/www/...
where
/usr/local/www/build/www/data/handbook -> ../../doc/handbook
You have to manually put in the symlinks at the moment, but it
works better than the evil CVS hackery.
Also, install with -C to help avoid gratuitous cache-busting due to
gratuitous timestamp twiddling.
. Removed references that dangerously dedicated disks won't boot. Several
people on -questions have proved me wrong.
. Add credit to Greg Lemis for the above note.

I have not personally done a "make world" since the 386BSD + patchkit days
so additional reviews from people who have would be good.

<code> seems to be not-liked by our HTML conversion right now, so I've
switched over to <tscreen><verb> sections which should accomplish the
same effect (and also look consistent with other examples).
that were revealed. Note: I didn't go through all of
the tutorials, so there is still some work to be
done here.
Made mailing addresses consistent with the handbook.
E.g:
freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG
instead of:
questions@freebsd.org
Yes, this is supposed to be a new top level in the repository.
For the moment any changes to this area must be cleared by myself
or Jordan. Once the kinks are worked out, the policy will probably
be relaxed.
