The command to load the .bin.gz image onto the DOC is: gunzip -c tinybsd.bin.gz > /dev/rfla0 Your kernel needs to support fla devices for this to work. Also, the TBDK is targeted only at 4.0-STABLE for the moment; your mileage may vary (more than usual :) if you use something else. To make images of other sizes, either modify example/build/dev0.conf or create a sub-buildtype and specify a replacement dev0.conf with empty fs0.conf and kern0.conf files. The filesystem from the example is too big for a floppy. Note also that this is only TBDK 0.1, and I gave little thought to how great the example would be once booted, or even how many people could boot it at all; my main goal was to say "Hey look, it builds! Whaddaya think?". I plan on having some floppy buildtypes in 0.2. =============================== Jeffrey S.
