System: NetBSD orwell.southern.net 1.2 NetBSD 1.2 (_SUN4C+FB_)

>Description:
    Several small points:
	Supported devices mention 'sun4c sbus' cards - should read 'sun4c and
	sun4m sbus' cards.
	The section on disk mapping quirks should be more specific as to
	which machines it applies to (sun4c?), and mention the quirks of
	sun4 machines.
	The notes state that when booting from the prom 'netbsd cannot handle
	the old-mode yet, and will firework on you' - I believe this is no
	longer true.
