Hi Polytropon, The case that I am working on is to add some packages for the mfsBSD scripts to use. Basically, I am working on trying to add the FreeBSD 12.1 "xorg-minimal" set of packages (excluding those that are really not needed) to the mfsBDF mini iso being generated. If all goes well then the mfsBSD that I create will have an extremely small ISO footprint and have a minimal xserver working as well. I have my core mfsBSD ISO from FreeBSD 12.1 coming in at 30MB now and am hoping to seek it still small with these xorg-minimal additions. This little flavor of FreeBSD will basically have the core kernel, small xorg, xterm, and and RDP and/or VNC client with no other packages since ultra small is the name of the game here to see how small I can go with it. That's the goal at least.
