o Remove 4.X information, this includes notes and sections.
o Update documentation to reflect 5.X and 6.X.
o In some areas, try to make the new content version agnostic.
o Skip areas stating "5.[0-5] and later" as it's relevant - we
need a better way to handle these.
For several items, I checked the NOTES files, manual pages,
CVS history, etc.
Discussed on: -doc
A few ideas from: remko
Added detail about fdisk and /boot/mbr to head off reader assumption
that FreeBSD's boot manager is FreeBSD-fdisk's default boot manager.
Added detail to statement about 512 byte boot program
to head off debatable claims that it's untrue, and also
to inform the reader.

make the difference between -STABLE and -CURRENT manual pages. We need
this for devfs, device.hints etc. manual pages in our Handbook.
Manual pages entities for -CURRENT should have the form &man.current.foo.1;
Note, this does not concern release notes but only docs.
An "old" man.devfs.5 entity is kept to allow the build of localized docs
till their upgrade.

introduction, boot0, boot1, and boot2 text to conform with what the
synopsis tells the reader the rest of the chapter.
Throw in a gratuitous Baron Munchausen reference.
