New Revision: 46438
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/doc/46438

Log:
  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  	- it warns of outdated stuff (acroread8 doesn't exist anymore)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
  
  Discussed with:	jmg,  Daniel O'Connor, bjk
