Hi all,
I've been able to build PicoBSD form FreeBSD 4.1.1, setup to boot off CD,
and have a whole heap of additional bit's a bob's to make the whole thing
work... (I've even got a splash screen etc. for my particular application.)
I've basically created my own, picobsd/custcd originally based on
picobsd/cust... I doubt very much that we want to do that, but it works
and I'm semi happy with it. If anyone is interested I can send a tarball
of the directory.
I use it to boot off, and restore a set of dump images of machines. (It
lets me configure a bunch of same / similar machines really quickly... A
bit like "Ghost" for FreeBSD.) It also lets me use network utils
(dhcpclient, ping, traceroute, tcpdump, etc.) without having to have a
dedicated FreeBSD host on hand!
Warren
