this was part of the effort that i started for 3.3 and Doug and Roger
helped with. Have you looked at what is in 3.3.R, and do you have
suggestions for improvements ?

BTW: on the floppy tree, quite a few files (e.g. those in /etc) would
benefit a lot from compression (e.g. /etc/master.passwd, or the various
databases). 

I was thinking of having them compressed on the floppy and gunzip'ing
them on the fly at boot, and gzipping again when updating the
configuration. This of course requires gzip to be on the floppy.

However, now fs.PICOBSD.gz is an indipendent file and more easily
manageable, i am considering wheter it is the case of putting there
all the stuff that does not require "update".
