I know. I don't really like it and i hate software that depends on  
that (i had that one time, program writes "file" and reads "File")  
but... since i come from the Linux people i like case sensitive  
filesystems and i run my OS X on it and have it on all my OS X  
harddisks.

Creating the images is no big deal, you just have to know the  
command. You don't need a script for that, usually 5-10 lines in the  
manual are enough. I think, the pkgsrc manual describes how to do  
that, if you want an example.

Ok, that's nothing you can easily change, but no big deal as long as  
you don't depend on the packages.

Ok. If i find some time and you provide me some help, i can try to  
play around with it a bit. Is there some documnentation or something  
like a roadmap online? Last time i looked i did not find anything.

And... before i try to bootstrap... which Accesspoint would you  
recommend? I own a WRT54G v2, but i can't use it for that. I would be  
interestes in something with WLAN, USB (2.0 if possible) and 2 or  
more network ports.

Thanks,
