(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!
