* handbook: The freebsd-boot 512KB limit is for legacy BIOSEd Maste10 days1-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A question[1] on Reddit asked about the 512KB freebsd-boot limit due to "current boot code limitations" in the context of EFI booting. Be clear that this is aobut legacy BIOS booting. This section should have a larger rework for EFI, but this is at least an improvement for the existing text.

* handbook/network: Clarify use of AmnesiacAlexander Ziaee2025-06-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When FreeBSD calls itself Amnesiac, that is not actually the hostname. It does that when there is no hostname set. It is not a substitute for assigning a hostname. Setting a hostname or complaining when none is set would introduce a regression for cases where the hostname is assigned by the DHCP server. Attempt to clarify the handbook instead of changing the behavior. PR: 286847 Reported by: jrtc27 Discussed with: linimon
