DIOS Mods: vdu's and sin's may have an optional dios entry, in which case there must be one dios entry for each device. an entry of 0 means that the device does no work through the dios. mkconf generates an array of dios addresses for the device, like char sindios[] = { 0x00, 0x80, 0x80, 0x80, 0x80, }; which the driver can use to determine if it should work with the dios. If no dios is specified but the device could take a dios spec, then an array of zeroes is generated. Example, a vdu entry with no dios specified would generate char vdudios[] = { 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, }; mkconf now insists that dios and associated device addresses conform to the addressing constraints of dioses. Param mods: No longer generates proc[NPROC], etc. those are taken care of in para.c Next, mkconf should generate para.c from a conf file
