A note for people installing 2.9 on systems with RM05 disks.  The
procedure (Installing/Operating 2.9BSD - Bootstrapping, March 26, 1984
page 7) gives a root file system size of 5168.  The correct size is
4560.  This size can be computed from the device man page (xp(4)) and
the tables used by the driver(9120/2=4560).  The other sizes appear
correct.
