H,

I have a system on which make buildworld won't work. I am thinking of 
doing a binary install on the system, but my only access to the system 
is ssh. So I am thinking of copying an image over and running 
sysinstall to install a new set of binaries and libraries.

Can this be done?
Is it the way to go?
What image should I use?
(Where to find sysinstall on it?)

a.i.v.d,

D.A.A.N.
