Although the man page on pkg_create does explain what the arguments are, it does not explain really what to do with it. For instance, where do you get a packing list from? I could probably hack up my own package by hand, just by diddling with an existing package, faster than I could figure out what to do with pkg_create. In a last ditch effort I'm posting here, in hopes somebody has at least a 1,2,3 setup for doing it (like the kernel compile in the FAQ (?), works great :) -Brandon
