Log:
Major lobotomy of config(8). The
config kernel mumble mumble
line has been obsoleted and removed and with it went all knowledge of
devices on the part of config.
You can still configure a root device (which is used if you give
the "-r" flag) but now with an option:
options ROOTDEVNAME=\"da0s2e\"
The string is parsed by the same code as at the "boot -a" prompt.
At the same time, make the "boot -a" prompt both more able and more
informative.
ALPHA/PC98 people: You will have to adapt a few simple changes
(defining rootdev and dumpdev somewhere else) before config works
for you again, sorry, but it's all in the name of progress.
