We really do, the collective amount of time that having these snapshots
saves is enormous.

A question, I've always installed the snapshots from a Mac partition using
the installer. I now have enough room on my netbsd partition for the
tarballs, and wonder if there is anything that I have to watch out for if I
tar zxvf them from /  ??

I'll do it as root, but should I also start up in single user mode?
