e7cc0c839f Describe the -no-emul-boot mkisofs(8) option and use it in the example.
Also remove the -U option from the example, since it could create ISO
images that some systems could not boot from (besides, it is not used in
the FreeBSD src/release/i386/mkisoimages.sh script, and there probably
is a reason for that ;)

9565589609 Devices name/node tagging is not consistent in the Handbook, it should
respect the following scheme:
- if the device name is /dev/foo --> <filename>/dev/foo</filename>
- if the device name is just foo --> <devicename>foo</devicename>

59b1918b83 Refer to sysutils/cdrtools instead of sysutils/mkisofs now that the
mkisofs port was merged into cdrtools.  I've also replaced most of the
references to the <filename role="package">mkisofs</filename> program
with an entity which we already have.
