* Per previous announcement, remove the old version of the rc system.Doug Barton2003-05-021-5/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | All functionality from the previous system has been preserved, and users should still customize their system boot with the familiar methods, rc.conf, rc.conf.local, rc.firewall, sysctl.conf, etc. Users who have customized versions of scripts that have been removed should take great care when upgrading, since the compatibility code that used those old scripts has also been removed.
