The interactive menu was designed when the image was not part of the kernel. Now that it is (and is the only way i could think to get rid of the 80+KB of the loader), you have to rebuild a kernel, unless there is some smart tool to add a section with the MD image to a ELF file and let the code in the kernel peek into that section... cheers luigi > Joe [application/pgp-signature is not supported, skipping...] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-small" in the body of the message
