Yes, but my goal is to make floppy that is very configurable at run time and capable of saving configuration changes. For example, I tried to build pico kernel with several drivers for ISA etherenet cards and use /boot/kernel.conf for tuning (enable/disable etc). I see that 'update' script will take care of it. So I made /usr/src/release/picobsd/MY/floppy.tree/boot/kernel.conf, but it does not go into image.
