there are several ways to accomplish this, all with the base system.  as 
a starting point try reading the man page for nanobsd(8).  you can also 
checkout the picobsd(8) man page as well if you want to take a look at a 
historical implementation of this. i've used nanobsd (and picobsd) to 
build embedded appliances and tiny VM images with great success in the past.
