If we really want to go this way, why don't put the whole > bunch of modules on a second floppy, and cut down the kernel size by half? Or better yet, a cgi that makes and caches boot floppies on the fly: pick your base kernel: 1) GENERIC 2) DPT 3) ... ? check modules: ( ) NFS (allow NFS install) ( ) ppp (allow ppp install) ( ) ... ? :) some dependancies would need to be constructed (make sure ppp is installed with ppp.kld) yeah i know it'll prolly have to use a vn device, but it could be done, maybe with "write_mfs_inkernel" Alfred Perlstein - Programmer, HotJobs Inc. - www.hotjobs.com -- There are operating systems, and then there's FreeBSD. -- http://www.freebsd.org/ 3.0-current > Andrzej Bialecki > > -------------------- ++-------++ ------------------------------------- > ||PicoBSD|| FreeBSD in your pocket?
