Peter Wemm 218f95f38b Clean up something in config(8) that has annoyed me for ages. Remove
the need to specify the unit number of unwired devices.  ie: instead
of saying "device fxp0" we can say "device fxp" which is much closer
to what it actually means.  The former (fxp0) implied something about
reserving the 0th unit, but it does not and never did - it was a
figment of config(8)'s imagination that we had to work around..
"device fxp0" simply means "compile in the fxp device driver", so we
may as well just write it as "device fxp" which is closer to what it
really means.

Doing this also saves us from filling up the ioconf.c tables with
meaningless entries.

UPDATING

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel and the contents of /etc.  Please see the top of the Makefile
in this directory for more information on the standard build targets
and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel with config(8) is a somewhat more involved process,
documentation for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file LINT contains entries for all possible devices, not
just those commonly used, and is meant more as a general reference
than an actual kernel configuration file (a kernel built from it
wouldn't even run).
