hi,

mfsBSD doesn't build a kernel image with an embedded mfsroot.  the goal is to have a
kernel you can specify in a xm config that will boot into sysinstall so you can do a
network install of freebsd from within the domU environment.

what i am looking to do is create a kernel image with an embedded mfsroot.  netbsd
already have a similar solution for doing installs within domU.
