since the kernel must be booted from something ( like a floppy ). This
script must occur near the beginning of the rc file in order to support
read-only NFS mounts, which in turn allows all the BOOTP machines to use
the same / and /usr.
The companion rc.diskless script is forthcoming.

The only essential change is in paths.h, so any third-party software
written correctly will pick it up in the next rebuild.

Commit changes to rc and rc.local, removing the remaining minimal
functionality of rc.local into rc and commenting it out of rc.local

Disable building tickadj(8) by removing util from SUBDIR in the xntpd
Makefile. Note that the sources are still there and tickadj can still
be built and installed by doing:
# cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/xntpd/util
# make all install
There are enough references to tickadj in e.g. the xntpd documentation
(not to mention the sysctl variables it uses etc.) that I don't feel
up to implementing the final solution right now.

file formats. I have added a new rc.conf variable ${ldconfig_paths_aout}
which is like ${ldconfig_paths}, but only for a.out shared libraries.
On a "standard" ELF system, the ELF ldconfig path is taken from
${ldconfig_paths}, while the a.out ldconfig path is taken from
${ldconfig_paths_aout}.
On a not-yet-converted a.out system, only the a.out ldconfig path
is set, and it is taken from ${ldconfig_paths_aout}. If that
variable is unset, /etc/rc defaults it to the value of ${ldconfig_paths},
on the assumption that the system's "/etc/rc.conf" file hasn't been
updated.

This was removing ppps device lock (when ppp's started in
/etc/start_if.tun0 in -ddial or -dedicated mode) and allowing
other programs (such as mgetty) to confuse ppp by playing with
the modem while ppp's using it.
People that nfs-mount /var had better not start ppp in this
way....

Note: This change just provides a convenient way to exercise existing
functionality. Whether `kern.securelevel' is effective in increasing
system security is another issue, and one that has been well thrashed
out in the lists.
Move a.out libraries to /usr/lib/aout to make space for ELF libs.
Make rtld usr /usr/lib/aout as default library path.
Make ldconfig reject /usr/lib as an a.out library path.
Fix various Makefiles for LIBDIR!=/usr/lib breakage.
This will after a make world & reboot give a system that no
longer uses /usr/lib/*, infact one could remove all the old
libraries there, they are not used anymore.
We are getting close to an ELF make world, but I'll let this
all settle for a week or two...
properly. Only users of 4 MB machines might not want it this way (to
prevent accidentally clobbering the coredump), but they are somewhat
in the minority these days.
Enable this by setting clear_tmp_enable in rc.conf to YES. Beware
there can be serious side-effects of enabling this, so use at you own
risk.
