And yet another example of how NetBSD can't promote itself very well:
NetBSD Live CDs have been around since June of 2002
(http://www.netbsd.org/Changes/2002.html#live-cd) and can easily be
adapted and created using the pkgsrc/sysutils/mklivecd package (one
example: http://www.netbsd.org/Changes/#livecd-contest).

But somehow the majority of the Open Source world seems to think that
this only exists for Linux and must be called Knoppix.
