To wit: 1. The install documentation is kind of obsolete, now that there's a real, running sysinstall. I think the sequence of instructions is now much closer to what i386, alpha, and pc98 use, which means we can probably use the unified installation document for them now (with suitable customization). 2. The hardware list probably could use some updating too, but this might be a little more useful if we could also cut over to the unified hardware list. Is there any interest in helping me update these things? (I'm not a sparc64 person, BTW.) If so, I'll change the documentation files to use the regular hardware and installation documents and let people go at it. I can help with markup issues, if necessary, but I don't know much about this platform. The current state of release documentation (for all recent releases and both currently-active development branches) can be found at: http://people.freebsd.org/~bmah/relnotes/ Thanks in advance!
