  Log:
  Transition from ALTPHYS to LINK2.  We already document in the ed(4)
  man page that the ifconfig option link2 is used to disable the AUI
  transceiver on the 3com boards (should also say HP PC Lan+).  This
  makes the connection clearer.
  
  Add a note about why we set this flag prior to attaching the device.
  We never set or clear the flag later, only test it.  There can be no
  races here, but this might be asthetically displeasing to some.  Also
  note that we may no longer need to have this knob at all as we may be
  able to do it with the more sophisticated rc.d scripts we have today I
  think the only reason it is there is because we didn't used to allow
  its proper setting when configured to get the IP address via DHCP.
  
  I'll note that this would be better handled by using ifmedia for all
  ed cards, not just those with a miibus...
