}Mostly I guess I'd really like it to simply save *all* of the DHCP

what's in a name ;-)
the dhcp.xxx stuff is easy, the problem is that the DHCP options are not
enough, so im trying to look into defining a FBSDclass ala PXEClient, and
supplying stuff like usr-ip/usr-path swap-ip/swap-path or whatever.

}There should be no real problems with the lease, as most leases are more 
}than long enough to boot the system anyway, so I wouldn't bother with 
}that.
}
and this is not a MS system that needs allot of magic before it boots up ;-)
