I agree on this .. at the moment I want picobsd to run on a 40MB
flash disk ... that looks like an IDE .. it would be great to have
some kind of installation that can be configure on which size
disk you want it, 1.44 or XX MB ..  I have to get such a system
up and running pretty soon and I would not mind helping in
getting some kind of installation / configuration thingy 
working.
