c2838fba59 List the names translators of the Greek doc+www team as contributors to 
FreeBSD: Manolis Kiagias, Nikos Kokkalis, Stylianos Sideridis and
Vaggelis Typaldos have been submitting patches for a while now in our
translation tree, so it's more than fair to thank them publically for
their ongoing contribution to the Greek doc effort :)

77e9a754e4 Update the gmirror section: 
1: Pass -O 2 to newfs for UFS2;
  2: Add a dd command to clear the primary disk;
  3: Remove the creation of boot.config, it's unneeded and causes problems;
  4: Describe how to view the status of the mirror build.

c7ddfa0425 Tiny change in the X11 client/server section. 
It's slightly better to talk about input/output devices (and add
an example of pointer devices other than a mouse), than a simple
'and so on' here.

c0d50d5d00 Fix problem marked with "XXX" in revision 1.223 by Ceri: 
Add an XXX comment regarding account locking procedures.  This text is
currently wrong, but the correct way to do this is currently pending a
resolution in bin/71147.

Yar resolved this issue with his modifications to pam_unix.c revision 1.52
which was later MFCed.

The fix was to rewrite portions of this section to cover the differences between
a *'red account and a *LOCKED* account.  While here, remove the comment.

21c0c8925b Mention full memor dumps, minidumps, and textdumps in the introduction 
to kernel debugging, with consequences for debugging.

Mention that the default in more recent FreeBSD versions is to
automatically select a swap partition and use it as a dump partition,
and don't suggest changing the default.

This chapter could use rather serious updating.

3441846d33 In wireless part: 
- Add some noise levels different from 0 since 7.X and above should
  correctly display these informations;
- Stick the ifconfig(8)'s inet part at the end of each command line.
  The inet setting does an implicit "up" to the interface before
  setting the rest of parameters leading sometimes to issues.  This is
  a bug, marking the interface up last is a workaround to that
  issue.  This change nothing to the doc since the parameters order
  should not be important, but may reduce the problems for the readers
  using cut&paste. [1]

so I'll just cut that part in the present commit and I'll re-add it in

05b3ca08ca There are two places in this chapter where we present (roughly) the

The earlier (in the text) one is at a more logical place in the flow

few more tidbits culled from the installation notes to the first
discussion about repartitioning and remove the second.

89b53cd484 Use &sparc64; entity. I don't particularly agree with this, because 
in this case we really should be using an entity that indicates a
variant of FreeBSD (such as &arch.sparc64; from the release notes),
not the commercial name of an architecture.  However, adopt the
prevailing style of this file for consistency; we can sort this out
later.

a8025867ba Update Bridging section for if_bridge(4), the deprecated bridge(4) 
driver has been removed.  The two last advanced bridging features
documented at the end of the page will be available on 6.3-R (in fact
one will be MFC next week and the other one with 6.3-R), but I chose
to not add "this feature is avaiblable on 6.3 blah blah" since they
are advanced features for experts and since they will be available on
RELENG_6 soon.

036be48428 Update porters handbook to sync to new autotools world order: 
* remove warning that the versions cannot be used for cross-development
  outside of the ports tree, this is no longer true

* add reference to the 'autotools' USE_AUTOTOOLS construct (for ports)
  and ports/devel/autotools to bring in all available versions of
  autotools

* remove table mapping old constructs to USE_AUTOTOOLS stanzas, since
  they haven't been present for a long time.
