What would be nice would be a PicoBSD which didn't require crunched binaries, however, since adding even a single one of those to the mix is a pain in the butt and the more kernel services you can rely on, the less you have to do this. Ever try adding ssh to your PicoBSD, for example? And that's even a target which used to work - try something REALLY different like gated or tcpdump for some real fun! :-) - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
