Would it be in anyone else's interest to have the size of the memstick
images for 10.0-RELEASE+ adjusted upward a little (say 64MB) to allow =
for
some free space on the filesystem?

We have custom installation scripts that  add "misc.txz" to the =
bsdinstall
distribution list.  These scripts want "misc.txz" to be able to grow to =
a
few megabytes.

The current image is too large for 512MB USB drives, so it would seem =
that
as long as the image remains smaller than 1GB it will still fit on =
current
devices.

Or can someone identify the custom changes we need to =
generate-release.sh in
order to accomplish this?

=20

We need to be able to make this increase for 9.2-RELEASE+, but I hope =
this
is generally acceptable for future releases.

Thanks, in advance, for any assistance you can provide.
