The boot blocks are currently documented in
src/sbin/reboot/boot_${ARCH}.8
though only boot_i386.8 (relating to the old, aout-only boot blocks)
exists.
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.
