I've made some trivial changes to fdisk's config file parsing code to

A quick look at sys/sysctl.h shows that there's a type CTLTYPE_QUAD, but
The following patch (against rc.diskless1 on STABLE, but the code is
identical in rc.d/initdiskless) simplifies the likely common case for
remounts in the /conf hierarchy. It allows you to specify a path (i.e.
/etc) in the diskless_remount file rather then having to record the path
to the NFS root
On some diskless 4.x systems, I've got the following patch in place to

I was poking around in various nic drivers and I noticed that several of
them have what seems to be an odd idiom in their generic attach
functions. For instance in sys/dev/ed/if_ed.c in ed_attach(), filling
in the interface fields and attaching the interface is protected by and

A Sparc 5 is a 32-bit machine (approximatly equivalent to a 90Mhz

I'd like to commit this prior to 5.0-R pending RE approval (post DP2
would be fine if that would help get it out the door).
