(http://docs.FreeBSD.org/doc/). This should be an answer to various
headaches when it's time to maintain the correctness of a documentation
for the various branches. The Handbook currently covers the use of
FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE and FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE (and 7-CURRENT since now the
changes between branches will be less "important"), so the users of
previous releases should read the versions archived on
http://docs.FreeBSD.org/doc/
on a fresh system. Marc [1] spotted this during a fresh
installation using the handbook to get the machine up and running.

in FreeBSD 6.0
- Catch up with renaming of /etc/rc.serial to /etc/rc.d/serial in FreeBSD 5.1
- Reword two sections to give 6.0 relevant instructions first
- Consider index.sgml as intermediate file, not dependency that ${DOC}.*
require. Instead, generate it on-the-fly when building ${DOC}.*.
This solves the problem that index.sgml is generated for the first
built target, but needs to be different from target to target.
The affected targets are:
index.html HTML.manifest
${DOC}.html
${DOC}.html-text
${DOC}.rtf
${DOC}.tex
${DOC}.tex-pdf
${INDEX_SGML} target removed in favor of the on-the-fly build.
- When building ${DOC}.rtf, add ${PRINT_INDEX} and ${LOCAL_IMAGES_PNG}
as dependencies, eliminating the need of building ${DOC}.rtf without
having to build ${DOC}.html beforehand.
- Modifications against ${HTML_INDEX} and ${HTML_SPLIT_INDEX}:
+ Add dependency to ${SRCS} and ${LOCAL_IMAGES_TXT} to force
index updates when necessary.
+ Every build now causes index.sgml to be reinitialized.
+ Depend on ${DOC}.* to generate index.sgml.

Also move the options USER_LDT to a note text, since the
handbook focusses on FreeBSD 5.X and later.
