Modified Files:
	syssrc/sys/arch/vax/boot/xxboot: Makefile bootxx.c start.s

Log Message:
Rewriting of the VAX boot block. Differences:

- Use the RPB for passing boot device info up to kernel, instead of the
  old BSD "hack" with an encoded longword (see sys/reboot.h for details)
- Instead of separate drivers for all devices, use the HW-provided ROM
  routines as much as possible.
- Add filesystem support for CD9660 also (now when there is space).
- Make everything compile with WARNS=1.

The boot block is now <7K in size and have support for UFS, CD9660 and USTAR.
