To date, I've been working with the boot_crunch.conf.generic crunchgen "script" and a "custom" version of the "dial" PicoBSD distribution; so far, I can build an image that "seems" to have a /stand/sysinstall or /stand/init but when I boot with a '-v' option: /stand/oinit, /stand/init, /stand/sysinstall and /stand/sysinstall.bak aren't found and I'm prompted that the system will auto reboot in 15 seconds. *sigh* What might I be missing here? I do recall a similar posting to the freebsd-small mailing list awhile back but I wonder if there's an easier way. -- _ _ |_| Collective |_| Nathan V.
