The mfsroot is built right into the kernel on boot.flp and you
basically need to build your own boot.flp image from scratch and
carefully edit the contents of the mfsroot before it gets compressed
and packed into the kernel.  If you're really keen to learn how to do
it, read /usr/src/release/Makefile very thoroughly and start building
releases to learn how to do it.
