All functionality from the previous system has been preserved, and
users should still customize their system boot with the familiar
methods, rc.conf, rc.conf.local, rc.firewall, sysctl.conf, etc.
Users who have customized versions of scripts that have been removed

that used those old scripts has also been removed.
name of the device that it creates. Update /etc/ttys accordingly.
An alias is created for the old name so that old /etc/ttys will continue to
work, but due to aliases being implemented as symlinks in devfs you cannot
login as root when using the alias device.
Discussed with: grehan
- The disktab was taken from etc.alpha.
- rc.sparc64 doesn't do anything right now.
- The ttys file has all the vty's commented out since we don't know how
those will work yet. Also, an entry is added for the Openfirmware
console device.
