Hi Gunnar,

There are two files and one subdirectory that are of interest.

In ../../picobsd/floppy.tree/etc/ directory you can find your
configuration files similar to  the /etc directory in the normal FreeBSD
installation. They can be edited prior to the build and should appear in
the /etc directory when you boot the floppy.

To configure the kernel for a particular build, I'll use bridge for an
example, go to ../../picobsd/bridge/ and edit the PICOBSD file to select
the kernel functions you require or add functions as needed.

The crunch.conf file is (for bridge) in ../../picobsd/bridge/crunch1/ .
# out the functions that you don't need and add functions in the same
format as in the file. Look at tcpdump for an example of special cases.

When you have the files edited to your satisfaction, go to
../../picobsd/build/ and do a ./clean all then ./build, select the build
flavor you just edited and press <enter>. If everything  goes well you
will get to the install screen where you can insert a floppy into your
drive and press <enter>.

One thing that I've found important is to be sure your source tree
(usr/src) is complete and up to date. Install the 3.x to 3 stable patch
(in the ports), install cvsupit, update your whole source tree and do a
make world otherwise you will get a lot of compile errors.

Good Luck and I hope this helps other folks as well.
