Stop assuming people have experience with DOS or OS/2:
	Some time in the last couple of years this experience
	ceased to be common place.

b60839cd34 new users: 
Remove steps which are no longer required.

it seems unlikely that users new to FreeBSD will want to do any of
		- use a floppy
		- use DOS
	and even using a tape drive and printing aren't common first tasks

9ab42c1f53 fbsd-from-scratch: remove it 
- it references sysinstall, which is gone
	- the scripts used to install the system use pkg_add not pkg
	- and are rotted in other ways
	- the limitations of sysinstall have been somewhat mitigated by
	  bsdinstall (which can install into a new directory)
	- it warns of outdated stuff (acroread8 doesn't exist anymore)
	- package building takes place on runnning system and not on poudriere
	- many of the packages referenced don't exist or are vastly changed
	- it incorrectly installs the base system
	- and more

6fed6d55db custom-gcc: modernize 
- use pkg instead of directly installing from ports
	- reduce references to old versions of gcc, and make the article more
	  future-proof
	- now that we either have a modern version of gcc or clang in base / as
	  the package building compiler, the impact of binary perf is no longer
	  relevant.

	really, this article should either move into the handbook or be removed.

b544187783 stop comparing to CVS 
Finish the job of r45149 and remove reference to now undocumented 'better
features' of CVS.

Remove note about difference between location of www repo between CVS
and SVN: we switched long enough ago now that it doesn't matter.

Remove additional comparisons to CVS which likely don't matter to committers
anymore.
