Greeting-

Would you like access to my BB via ssh and also access to it's console
via ssh?

I have had the same results with several usb sticks, but all of them
have been at least 16GB.  I am also swapping to the current USB stick
on a swap partation, but I have had the same results on this stick and
others without swapping to it.

/usr/ports is on the root fs on the sd card.

If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army 
pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and 
gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.
