I've been advocating small distributions and RAMdisk approaches to
"embedded FreeBSD" in my talks and tutorials at EuroBSDCon 2005
(Basel, Switzerland) and LinuxTag 2006 (Wiesbaden, Germany):

http://www.webgroup.ch/eurobsdcon2005/
http://www.webgroup.ch/linuxtag2006/

I intend to submit - either as a part of nanobsd or as a port -
some generic tools to create these RAMdisks which include SSHD.  I
also have tools to create self-sufficient distributions including
select ports. I am trying to make those scripts more flexible and
generic, for now they are still very specific to my STYX project.
