Update of /a/cvsroot/src/sys/kern
In directory pain.lcs.mit.edu:/a/tmp/cvs-serv29645

Modified Files:
	subr_autoconf.c 
Log Message:
#ifdef __alpha__, call a machine-dependent function with new device
structure and 'aux', right before ca_attach is called for the
newly-attached device.  This allows the alpha port to do root device
autodetection without modifying every bus and device driver which could
be in the 'boot path.'  In the long run, it may make sense to make
this machine-independent.

Log Message:
boot device autodetection, using PROM's boot device environment variable.
This is a bit of a hack, as-is, since there's a lot of code that's
outright duplicated between the various files and because it doesn't
support detection of a network device as the root device.  The
latter's not a problem yet, because NetBSD/Alpha can't load the kernel
from the network to begin with.
