Modified files:
usr.sbin/sysinstall config.c
Log:
o No longer mount /proc by default on newly installed systems. Almost
all facilities that previously relied on /proc have been rewritten
to use ptrace(). procfs has presented a substantial security
hazard for years, with several user->root compromises in the last
few years. Procfs will continue to be available but will require
administrator intervention to use.
