I can identify with your condition. :) Unfortunately, the early boot loaders (boot0, and boot1+boot2) are simply too tight on space to add more features. I think boot0 literally has 0 or 1 bytes free right now. However /boot/loader has a lot more free space and can be easily and intuitively configured via /boot/loader.conf. All of the boot code can be found under src/sys/boot. -- John Baldwin
