This man page probably needs to be moved, by repository copy, to /sys/i386/boot/biosboot and a new man page created in /sys/boot/i386/boot2 However, while the old boot blocks continue to be part of a make world, "man boot" is still going to bring up the old, aout-only information because the old stuff is installed later. -- Robert Nordier To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
