45ba1e4cea In port upgrading FAQ: Note that pkg_version(1) in FreeBSD 5.0 and
later does not (and will not) support the -c option.  One other minor
wording tweak while I'm here.

02c25dba99 "Fix" the FAQ so that it can deal with the concept of two "latest"
releases of FreeBSD (at the moment, 4.7 and 5.0).

This is a hack.  It really needs to be fixed to be more generalized
and so that this concept can be used in documents other than the FAQ.

But at least for now, we don't say weird things like "5.0-RELEASE is
the latest release from the 4-STABLE branch".

cbbbe65b73 Greatly expand the information here. Unbreak the build (stray " crept
in in my last commit).  Eliminate the use of wicontrol to setup hostap
mode.  Warn about using current firmware for hostap.  Describe IBSS
and BSS at least a little bit, as well as the various flavors of
ad-hoc mode.

# This is better, but additional work is still needed.

db8a3fbe87 Move the speed (-t 3) option into the ifconfig line. Remove the ssid
from the wicontrol line, since it isn't needed.  Add channel number to
