  Modified:    sys/i386/boot/biosboot  io.c
  Log:
  Made the timeouts in gets() machine-independent.  Use the BIOS tick
  counter instead of the BIOS time call to save space.
  
  Reworked the anti-noise timeout to avoid duplicating code.  The timeout
  in the outer loop is now restarted after every noise timeout, so it is
  now possible for the total timeout to be infinite; previously, the maximum
  total timeout was 150000 seconds.
