8412ed7c28 Back out roberto's amendment to my update of the Australian distributor's
address - Melbourne is a city in the state of Victoria, not vice versa! :-)

Also add reference to Greg Lehey's books in the appropriate section,
replace some redundant questions by pointers to the Handbook, replace
"look at this bit of the Handbook" pointers by URLs, clean up
inconsistent use of "one" and "you" and fix a couple of typos
introduced by my previous changes...

fbaf9e392a * Added lots more introductory material.
* Removed material that was duplicated in the installation instructions.

* Updated the address for an Australian supplier of CDROMs (supplied by
  David Henshaw via Martin Butkus).

* Give more info about how to get started with the installation.

* Update references to 2.1.0 as "the latest release".

* Added pointer to a Web page explaining how to have multiple operating
  systems on the same machine.

* Moved question about running DOS binaries out of the installation section.

* Added question re boot floppy not loading properly.

* Added explanation of disk geometry, moved things around so that "please
  refer to the previous question" no longer sends the reader with a
  non-booting system to a PLIP cable wiring diagram!

* Mention the time/space requirements for making a custom install floppy.

* Acknowledge a couple of people whose answers I've adapted in various
  places (and who deserve credit anyway for answering so many questions!)

e0aca71773 Add Mark Huizer <xaa@stack.urc.tue.nl> for the kaffe port.
I forgot his name whilst typing in the commit message on the
port, and he wasn't in the handbook (I guessed wrong, using Marc
Van Kempen, sorry to both).  Now, his name is in here and I
won't get mixed up again!

Obtained from: Mark (not Marc!)

fa0da7ab92 Bring this section up to reality.
(1) Additional __FreeBSD_version's from <osreldate.h>.  Closes PR
    docs/1438.
Submitted by:	"David E. O'Brien" <obrien@Nuxi.cs.ucdavis.edu>

(2) Make it clear that when submitting a port, the package is not
    necassary.
Suggested by:	joerg

(3) Recommend people to use send-pr to send us notifications of new
    ports and upgrades so that they won't fall between the cracks.
Suggested by:	a lot of people

(4) Add a section about Motif and describe REQUIRES_MOTIF and
    MOTIFLIB.
Prodded by:	chuckr

(5) Revise the licensing problems section and describe the two
    variables RESTRICTED and NO_CDROM.

(6) Fill in the section about upgrading.  In particular, recommend to
    send in diffs of the old and new ports (these are "ports", not the
    original source or anything!), so it's easier to see what has
    changed.
