616f60e06d Unwrap some lines which fit on one line just fine when rendered; the
readability of the finished product is more important here.

cd44ed208a Clean up some confusing text and clarify that sched_pin/unpin only operate
on curthread on the current CPU.  Reference sched_bind/unbind for those
looking for something more general.

dd193d1279 We discuss increasing NMBCLUSTERS in the Handbook.
Don't have separate, old instructions in the FAQ, point to the
authoritative Handbook instead.

4c8882f6f9 Perhaps if the URL
"http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/vortex.html#micron"
existed, we could get more information there.  But it doesn't, so we
can't.

65c08b4b6c This was a rather weirdly named anchor, and unnecessary to boot.

0407691942 Get rid of math co-processor questions. We don't run on that sort of
hardware out-of-the-box anyway, so it's not a FAQ.

Thanks to: Erik Trulsson <ertr1013@student.uu.se>, for actually having
the presence of mind to go look at UPDATING and confirm/deny this.

e0236a92e8 The Bustek 742a controller? It appears that this card was heavily
used, back around 1992.

The mailing list archive shows 0 questions about this.  Given the
number of FAQs that are asked, I think this is pretty indicative of
the number of people using this card, i.e., few if any.

4f4cce4170 Remove a beautifully detailed, helpful, lengthy explanation of how to
use bad144 with bad blocks on disks.

I asked the original author about this in 2001, and he said this text
was old and irrelevant at the time.  Four years on, it's even more
irrelevant.

Do we even run out-of-the-box on hardware without a math co-processor
