Not yet, unfortunately.

The idea is to make a filesystem that fits in 1.44MB, probably by
following the sparc "microroot" example:  a kernel with minimal tools on
the floppy image, and a gzipped tarfile of the real / filesystem on the ISO
side (put into a chroot mfs area).  I'm hoping to see this available by 1.6;
if no one else gets to it, I'll do the work when my plate becomes less full.
