Hi crowd,

as i already told here a couple of days ago, i've been working on a funny 
project aiming to run NetBSD from an USB stick without having to change 
its original FS (read VFAT), using mount_msdos(8), vnd(4) and 
vndcompress(1).

The system is now usable i think, and maybe some of you can be insterested 
in it. It runs NetBSD 3.0.0_STABLE and is composed of full base + xbase, 
misc and helvetica fonts. All fits in about 60 megs.

I made it rather configurable so you can make the system install 
packages you want at startup just by copying standard NetBSD packages to 
the livekey/pkg directory in the key. Root's home directory is also 
located in the key so you can tweak your dotfiles a convenient way.

I wrote a quick documentation so anyone can reproduce this easily, all the 
scripts i made and used are online.

If you want to give it a try, the project homepage is 
http://imil.net/wp/netbsd-livekey/ and contains -i think- all needed 
information for you to test it.

Hope you'll like it :)

regards
