>Organization:
Pointless.net
>Environment:
NetBSD monstrosity 5.99.48 NetBSD 5.99.48 (MONSTROSITY) #1: Thu Apr  7 20:49:40 BST 2011  jasper@limpit:/home/jasper/develop/netbsd/netbsd-src-and-build/tree/l.64/obj/sys/arch/amd64/compile/MONSTROSITY amd64

>Description:
the boot(8) manpage referes readers to boot_console(8) to find out what the different consdev arguments do, but there isn't a boot_console(8) on amd64.
>How-To-Repeat:
'man boot_console' on and amd64 machine.
>Fix:
In the Makefile in:

src/share/man/man8/man8.amd64/

add boot_console.8 to the MAN= line.

(mbr.8 multiboot.8 pxeboot.8 dosboot.8 could probably be added as well)
