Hi All,

I'm interested in using freebsd in an embedded system, where the only
storage device
is a small flash.
Is there a feature for freebsd that during boot, a compresses filesystem is
extracted
into ramdisk, so further operation is done completely whithin the ramdisk?
(that is
that the root filesystem is mounted to the ramdisk - I'm not talking about
making /tmp
an MFS)

I know such feature exist in BSDI (and maybe Linux), but couldn't locate
anything like
that for freebsd by searching the web.

Please reply to my personal address too (barak@cwnt.com) as I'm not
registered yet
to this mailing list.

Regards,
Barak Enat
