I've added an installation from optical disk drive facility.
This enables FreeBSD to be installed from an optical disk, which
may be formatted in "super floppy" style or sliced into MSDOS-FS
and UFS partitions.
Note: ncr.c should be reviewed by Stefan Esser <se@freebsd.org>
and cd.c by Joerg Wunsch <joerg@freebsd.org> before bringing this
into 2.2.

Fixed some style bugs for cua* and tty*.
Removed superfluous chmod for consolectl.
FIxed a tiny security bug for perfmon and changed the style for
perfmon to match the style of the non-std devices.
create the PC-CARD devices.
Note: The APM character special device is named /dev/apm and not apm0 as
was prvioiusly since only one APM device can exist in a system at a time
according to the the APM specifications.
tape_umask=017 for all tapes. This has a significant effect only
for ft and st (they were created with the wrong umask 002 and then
chmod'ed to mode 640; now they are created with mode 660).
Chmod the st control devices (mode 3) to 600. These need to be
more secure than the st i/o devices, but were less secure.
Use the default umask of 077 for joy0. 002 gave mode 664, which
is insecure.
Use umask 037 for ch*. Cosmetic.
Removed redundant chmod's.
Sorted case lists for disks.
rest of the memory group - std. Also correct the permissions so as not
to force a security hole. If /dev/*random have the permission 640 and
ownership bin.kmem, it forces applications that need random numbers
to be at least SGID. Picture the scene of a SGID PGP being able to
read /dev/kmem!
example without optios would create floppies that waste half of their
space in i-node areas. :) (Comment only)
Add a sample entry for a Sony 650 MB MOD.
Move `Individual slices' case earlier so that it can be used to handle
sliced floppies.
Remove superfluous `chmod 600's.
Fix formatting of device list.
Don't group setting of umasks with setting of units.
Remove superfluous trailing semicolons.

rc.i386 failed messily when I used a serial console.
Editors note:
Use file redirection so that all the kbdcontrol and vidcontrol
commands act upon /dev/ttyv0 instead of stdin. Though this feature
is not documented it is the intended behavior of {vid,kbd}control
and shall be documented in the future as such.
