Diskless Operation in the online doc. Just how would one go about "unpacking" the root filesystem as described in diskless operation: 14.3.1. Setup Instructions. Does this just mean the directory structure? As in: cd src/etc make DESTDIR=/usr/diskless distrib-dirs distribution and then making the /dev directory and copying the userland binaries to the correct places?
