Hi,

man loader and the C code say that the bootfile separator is `;'
while the sample entry in /boot/defaults/loader.conf uses `,'.
same assertion about /boot/loader.help.

also, /boot/defaults/loader.conf has the following line :

loader_conf_files="/boot/device.hints /boot/loader.conf /boot/loader.conf.local"

is /boot/device.hints understood under -stable ?

is it possible to add a `# $FreeBSD$' tag to the following files ?

	src/sys/boot/alpha/common/help.alpha
	src/sys/boot/arc/loader/help.alpha
	src/sys/boot/common/help.common
	src/sys/boot/i386/loader/help.i386
