I was hoping to avoid >re-inventing the wheel (I am lazy, I know. ;-) 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 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-small" in the body of the message
