It should support many NICs and have at least telnet on it. I would like to know if it is possible to get PicoBSD on HD an boot it from there, perhaps with altered startup. Thank you for your help.

Yes, you can do this, essentially trivially. Just copy the picobsd kernel (the uncompressed kernel image, not floppy image that contains the compressed kernel image). Put the picobsd kernel anyplace that you would boot a FreeBSD kernel. Boot it the same way you would boot a FreeBSD kernel. In the "build_dir-YOURCONF" subdirectory of your picobsd configuration directory, you will find the picobsd kernel, named "kernel". Copy it to the "/" dir of the disk from which you want to boot it... if you need to experiment in a fast cycle, on a development machine, just copy and rename the picobsd kernel and reboot the system, running the new kernel as you would an alternate kernel: #cd YOURCONF #cp kernel /picokernel #shutdown -r now space-bar OK unload OK load /picokernel OK boot - bruce From owner-freebsd-small@FreeBSD.ORG Mon May 10 11:01:40 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-small@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 14B9316A4CE for ; Mon, 10 May 2004 11:01:40 -0700 (PDT) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (freefall.freebsd.org [216.136.204.21]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id F3D1443D2D for ; Mon, 10 May 2004 11:01:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-bugmaster@freebsd.org) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (peter@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.12.11/8.12.11) with ESMTP id i4AI1dFe095835 for ; Mon, 10 May 2004 11:01:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-bugmaster@freebsd.org) Received: (from peter@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.12.11/8.12.11/Submit) id i4AI1drW095829 for freebsd-small@freebsd.org; Mon, 10 May 2004 11:01:39 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-bugmaster@freebsd.org) Date: Mon, 10 May 2004 11:01:39 -0700 (PDT) Message-Id: <200405101801.i4AI1drW095829@freefall.freebsd.org> X-Authentication-Warning: freefall.freebsd.org: peter set sender to owner-bugmaster@freebsd.org using -f From: FreeBSD bugmaster To: freebsd-small@FreeBSD.org Subject: Current problem reports assigned to you X-BeenThere: freebsd-small@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Dedicated and Embedded Systems List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 10 May 2004 18:01:40 -0000 Current FreeBSD problem reports Critical problems Serious problems Non-critical problems S Submitted Tracker Resp.

You could have a nice loader menu to select with kernel, or root filesystem image to boot with. -Jon Bruce R.
