I've just done something very similar, and while I lost a couple of days 
doing it (and a CF card, Doh!), the amount I learned about FreeBSD, linkage 
and the booting process made the time IMHO worthwhile.

As an aside: I've noticed the whole wanting to get FBSD onto a flash card 
is now turning into a FAQ, and I do feel that it may have a place between 
pico and 'full' FreeBSD. There may be some mileage in getting this together 
as a makefile (so as to not inflame Jordan :) and getting it together 
as.... a port? part of the CVS tree?

I might be volunteering.... I'll have to work it out a bit more. What're 
people's thoughts on this?

Dave
